Back in 2006 it was suspected that Harry would not survive in Volume 7
and no less than John Irving and Stephen King pleaded with JKR to let
Harry live. I think that originally Harry was supposed to die but JKR
bowed to pressure and changed the ending. It would explain a lot: the
weak epilog, the Harry's a horcrux/no he's not waffling, the weird
heavenly chapter, the strange conversion of Narcissa Malfoy, etc.
Disagree.
As JKR has made plain her use of Christian allegory,
Harry was meant to "die" and come back to save the
wizarding world. This was planned from the beginning.
The idea sprang into her head while on a train. My
guess is that she was heading for King's Cross Station.
