Well, personally, when I was watching the movie I didn't think that
TimeTravel!Harry felt the pain, I took his rubbing the spot as an action
that simply accompanied his remembrance of feeling the pain there. But, I
agree it can be interpreted either way and it is an interesting theory if
you're right.
Speaking of time-travel, to me the Time Room in the DOM referenced not only
time travel but the phoenix as well, with the little bird that was forever
trapped in a cycle of birth, death and rebirth. I think we take the Phoenix
in all its manifestations in the book as a representation of time as well.
