OK, I'm not disputing your point, merely your example. It was the 
Hallows specifically that I felt were been pulled out of you-know-where, 
as if JKR were saying, "OK, now I need three Hallows -- lessee, oooh -- 
Harry's cloak, yeah that's good. And umm ... " There was no sudden 
revelation for me, more a sense of, "Huh? Where'd THAT come from?" It 
felt forced, fake, inorganic.

Again, not to dispute your main point.
