This part of your post does not make sense to me.  How could DD have 
assisted Nicholas Flamel with the creation of the stone?  Flamel was a 
ripe old 650+ years old.  DD was a "spring chicken" at a mere 150.  It 
does not seem believable for me that Flamel could have lived 500+ years 
before DD was even born without the stone.  The canon we have indicates 
that DD was a friend to Flamel (who invented the stone), but it states 
nothing about DD assisting with this development.
