I don't know.... If Harry became a Horcrux when he was a baby and
grew up as LV's Horcrux while LV was in an incredibly weakened
state, then the same rules may not apply.

Harry has had time to adapt and acclimate his body to harboring part
of someone else's soul. Babies adapt and change quicker and it's
easier for them to alter their needs and behaviors than it is for a
grown child.

This would definitely explain why Harry was always so in tune with
LV and his feelings.
