My stray thought is this.  Being that JKR has stated that the next 
summer  should be Harry's shortest stay, could it be that Harry 
doesn't need to stay there as long because he had received an 
extra layer of protection during his time in either the 
graveyard (GoF) or in the MoM (OoP)?  LV initially overlooked the 
blood protection from Harry's mother, underestimating the old 
magic at his own cost.  LV could have done it again!  His narrow 
minded goal of killing Harry could have once again clouded his 
"reasoning".  Remember in GoF when Harry thought he saw a 
"gleam of something like triumph in DD's eyes" after he told DD 
about Womtail taking his blood to use in the potion to bring back 
LV? That "gleam of something like triumph" is interesting to me.  
It must mean something!  
Any thoughts?

I was thinking about this just this morning.  I thought it odd that LV would rescue Bellatrix (or Trixie as I think of her) when fleeing from MoM & DD in OotP.  When LV took over Harry, Harry's love for Sirius and his acceptence of death made LV leave Harry's body.  DD has stated that Harry's protection is in his blood - think antibody or a virus.  LV has Wormtail "infect" him with Harry's blood.  The "virus" lays dormant until LV takes over Harry and Harry's love activates the virus "love bug".  Which would explain why LV rescued Trixie, who was trapped under a statue.  Remember what Sirius' greatgrandfather said about saving oneself first is the main goal of any Slytherin.  Stopping to rescue Trixie while fighting DD is definitely not something LV would normaly do.  Maybe people have been misinterpreting the Prophecy, it stated the Dark Lord must die not Tom Marvolo Riddle must die.  The Dark Lord is a creation of TMR.  Maybe that creation, that has never known love, is what will die
 when TMR truely knows love.  Does this make any sense?
