Kneasy:
If you take it to extremes then yes, that's one possibility.
Of course he may not be quite that bad - he might only be as rotten
at magic as Neville and just the larger proportion of his magical powers
derive from Voldy instead of all of them.
But it's reasonable to surmise that the Voldy bits in Harry automatically
chose/were suited to a wand as close to Voldy's original as it was possible
to get. Which puts the graveyard scene into a different light - is it
possible to AK *yourself*? Would the destruction of Voldy bits in
one result in the death of Voldemort in the other?
Novel form of suicide if you can do it.
And a new potential final resolution - Harry's dying destroys Voldy.
Cor! That'd upset some.

Kneasy:
You've been reading Fraser's "The Golden Bough" again.
You really shouldn't; it only gets you excited.
