I agree with you on everything here, except on Nagini actually being a
Horcrux. I still cannot believe that LV would entrust a bit of his
soul to something as unreliable and as easily destroyed as a living
creature. I like the idea of Harry being a Horcrux, but only if he is
an "accidental Horcrux", not intentional. I don't know how this could
happen, but still cannot abandon this theory. 

As for Nagini, DD's story about her being a Horcrux seems very fishy
to me. DD says that LV used the snake to kill an old Muggle. Whom does
he even mean? Frank Bryce? But LV killed Bryce himself, without using
Nagini.

I know you guys discussed all this before and probably came to some
conclusion, but I wasn't here back then and believe me, I really
regret it now.

Anyway, I think that DD mentioned Nagini just to make Harry know that
a living being CAN be a Horcrux. He didn't have courage to say that
Harry himself is a Horcrux, and he hoped that with this piece of
information Harry will figure it out himself later.
