I respectfully disagree. In every book starting from book 1
JKR emphasized over and over again that the wand chooses the
wizard. More than once I wondered why she was making such a
big point about it; In book 7 I found out exactly precisely why.
I think the lady knew what she was doing from day one.

I don't think so. I think a plot hole is when the average reader cannot hope to come up with a logical explanation about one aspect of the story. If that is what a plot hole is then this is not one.  I will not insult the intelligence of readers by explaining exactly why a play fight would not change wand allegiances, and fortunately JKR was not that patronizing either.
