Harry's Stats plus Assorted Other Stat Revisions (Small Favor through Cold Days)
Deadmanwalking:
See, I don't see that as anything more than a reflection of his ability to channel the element impacting the item. Rules-wise, there's never any reason to use 'pure' Soulfire, nor 'pure' Hellfire (and we never see Harry doing either), so adding it as an actual thing seems wrong.
And actually, I believe it's implied that only the elders and other vampires of exceeding cunning survived the Stoker affair...much like Mavra.
I mean, logically it would be the young and the weak who'd fare the worst in such a situation.

The Elders were the targets, AIUI; the young ones could slip under the radar.
Nomad:
About soulfire's agenda (on page 13), I think it's about "creating" (Fires of creation and all)
I know on gameplay terms soulfire and hellfire are about equal, both make a fire spell bigger and hotter but soulfire wants to create and drains you to create more, it doesnt care what its creation does as long as it creates something (flames in this case) while hellfire wants to "inflict" more and doesn't want to stop...
Soulfire drains you because you are the AAAA battery while hellfire harms you because it is too corrosive.

not necessarily. it says under sponsored magic the benifits from sponsored magic can stack when it is applied to other elements so having a focus item with powers toward a sponsored element it just means whenever you add that element to your spells it makes it stronger or your control greater.
So like if you had a staff focus item that gave +1 offensive power spirit and +1 offensive control hellfire, when you channelled spirit magic coupled with hellfire through that it would get both the bonus's. at least thats way i looked at it.
Deadmanwalking:
That's not my interpretation of how Sponsored Magic interacts with normal magic at all.
