I like this scenario, but, wouldn't he yell "Mum, run!" rather

James, I find it doubtful that an 18-yr-old Harry 
looks so much like a 22 (or so)-year-old James that Lily wouldn't be 
like, who the heck are 
you???

I never said that Lily believes that Harry is James.  

If Harry does go back, I think that things are not going to work out
the way he plans. What if seeing 18 year old Harry is the reason
that Lily ultimately decides to sacrifice her own life to save him as
a baby?

Let's say that Harry goes back but does not tell his mom who he is.
Who is to say that his mom wouldn't figure it out anyway. She sees
someone who looks like James and has her eyes...

And What if Harry bumps into unexpected people on the way. What
would they make of him? Would they think he was a DE?

Going back would be a bad idea all the way around. But
unfortunately, if given the means and opportunity, it's definitely
something Harry would do.
