Thank you, this comes of posting in a hurry. Let me restructure that in a better way: How well supported is the theory that HJPEV’s behavior is completely explained by rational extensions of something in-canon? Has he done anything that could not be explained by the interference of Horcrux!Riddle (who did in fact have pretty much the upbringing that McGonagall describes), and has anything at all happened in the story that would suggest something else at play there?
