WAG.... Murphy has moved on

Actually pretty sure Jim addressed this issue. Harry's back was healed as was part of the deal. What happened to Harry was Mab reminding him of what she can do. It's not the first time either. When she acquired his debts (before he became Winter Knight) she was able to make him stab his own hand.

I don't think breaking winter law "undid" the back healing.
I think what happened there was Mab going, "If you break winter law, I will put you right back how I found you." I.e., that she possesses the power over him to just break him again if she wishes.

Believe it or not, I agree, this is exactly what I think happened. I also believe that Mab is tricky enough not to tell Harry the last bit about being able to break his back again if she wanted to.. That way he'd think being Winter Knight is the only thing holding his back together.

Another possibility is that she installed a magical bypass to connect the nerves of the spine while it heals itself over 40 or 50 years. In that case, screw winter law = screw winter magic = magical bypass temporarily fails.

If it is your ordinary magical fix, cold iron under the skin should nullify it.
It does not happened that way though.
Iron under the skin give Harry a lot of pain, but he is not paralyse or lose all feeling on the lower body parts.
If it is indeed just a magical bypass, it is something beyond the normal rules.

Yes, because that's what Butters needs. More Powerups.
It's not enough that he's a Magitech Jedi Batman MMORPG Protagonist.

KoTC don't really needs powerups anyway. KoTC works for TWG and TWG is all the power anyone could need.
Have faith. stay within the rules and know your limits. Follow the above 3 and a KoTC can hardly fail.
What cause a KoTC to fail is never power, it is judgement, wisdom and faith. Maybe love and courage too, but it is never about power or ability.

Good point. Harry's nailed several times in Cold Days, which costs him the pain-nullification benefit of his Mantle, yet he can still move his legs (you know, if he wasn't blinded by pain).
