I think Harry would feel like a failure if he died without killing
Voldemort. Voldemort would love to kill or torture anyone Harry ever
cared about. The wizarding world would become a very dark place if
Harry does not succeed. I think Harry doesn't want the deaths of
those who have gone before him to be in vain.
