My theory on this (again - having originally posted
this in 10/03, #83783) is that Dumbledore knows
that Voldemort doesn't know the entire prophesy --
Voldemort doesn't know that Harry is the one with the
power to vanquish him.  If Voldemort knew that, would
Dumbledore still be "the only one he ever feared"?  As
long as Voldemort doesn't know that Dumbledore
(theoretically) can't kill him, Dumbledore still has
that advantage over him.   Dumbledore can't risk
losing that by trying and failing to kill him.
