It is clear that DD could not find or even be sure of the final two
Horcruxes. DD also struggled to deal with the ring Horcrux and even
get near the locket Horcrux. So are we supposed to believe that Harry
has the ability to a) locate and b) destroy these Horcruxes. No he
does not. What Harry possesses is the ability to destroy Voldemort
once the Horcruxes are destroyed!!It is Snape (who knows more about
the Dark Arts than anyone) who is ideally placed to destroy the two
unknown Horcruxes. As I've said before, Harry will face LV thinking
that certain Horcruxes are still in place - leading to immense over
confidence on the part of LV.

I agree that it could happen that way - but I don't think LV would 
be overconfident because of the Horcruxes.  Even with horcruxes, if 
he were hit with AK, he would become the same hideous vapor thing 
that he was before he came across Quirrell.  He might be 
overconfident because he thinks he's unbeatable magically now that 
DD is gone.  

The final confrontation could actually happen the opposite way - 
Harry "knowing" that there's no point in fighting Voldemort because 
some of the Horcruxes are still in place, thinking he's going to die 
in vain - but then miraculously it doesn't happen.  Voldemort dead, 
Harry utterly baffled - 

Enter Severus Snape.  ;)
