Exactly, and if JKR had meant readers to think somebody else besides
Harry had cast that spell think how incredibly awkward it would be in
the next book:

"Gee," Harry said with a puzzled expression on his face, "a thought
just popped into my head, 4 months ago somebody saved my life, I would
have been dead meat without him or her. I wonder who it was ? I
haven't mentioned that incident once or even thought about it since it
happened."

That is just not going to fly. JKR has over 6 books proved to be an
excellent writer especially regarding plot, I don't see why she would
suddenly loose all her ability and suddenly turn into a comically
inept hack for book 7.

If you play the "unreliable narrator" card you can make any theory fit
the facts no matter how crazy. But where's the fun in that?
