New thought on Horcrux

Please bare with me.  This is kinda complicated and I'm not good at
explaining things.

We, based on DD assumptions, feel that LV divided his soul into 7 parts. 
What makes us think those parts are equal?  When LV made is first horcrux
(diary), did he only put in 1/7 of his soul?  Would he have the ability to
split his soul that exactly?  How could he have been certain he would not
have been interrupted before completing his task?  It seems to me that the
first time he made a horcrux he would have divided his soul in 1/2.  The
second horcrux would have been 1/2 of the remain 1/2 soul in his body.  So,
horcrux #2 would have 1/4 of LV soul.  Horcrux #3 = 1/8, etc.  What we would
get are:

                Horcrux #1 = 1/2 soul (diary)
                      "        #2 = 1/4
                      "        #3 = 1/8
                      "        #4 = 1/16
                      "        #5 = 1/32
                      "        #6 = 1/64
                      "        #7 = 1/128 (Voldemort)

If my thinking is correct, then Harry has already destroyed 1/2 LV soul when
Harry destroyed the diary, assuming, of course, the diary was the first
horcrux.  DD has destroyed another part but I'm not sure what # horcrux the
ring would be.  If my thinking is correct, then there is less that 1/2 of LV
soul still out there to be located and destroyed even if it is in bits and
pieces.

Thoughts?  Corrections?  Comments?  All are anxiously awaited and more than
welcome.

I haven't been able to keep up with the posts, but I don't recall seeing
anything along these lines.
