Though on further reflection, if Harry is Voldemort in a straightforward sense, what is Dumbledore’s interpretation of Harrymort’s motives for saying what he said? Alternative hypothesis: this is the moment when Dumbledore figured out that Harry is a horcrux. Also, Dumbledore may see an important clue in the fact that Voldemort offered Lily a chance to flee. Or Dumbledore figured out the love shield thing. Or a combination of the above.
Very good point. Will be looking for evidence of this theory in the future.
