What's Odin's stake in things?

Them being worried about Dresden, and considering getting rid of him isn't the same as carrying it out. Now it's too late.

All I am saying is he didn't become Winter Knight until Changes. Mab did name him emissary in
Summer Knight, but they were worried and wanted to get rid of them before that.. Perhaps they fear because Lea is his godmother? Or there is more to it and neither Harry nor us know it yet.

Well, Harry didn't become Warden of Demonreach until Turn Coat, and that's what moved him from being a potential local-scale threat to a potential world-scale threat.
Early on, if Harry had gone full Dark Side, he'd have been a dangerous and powerful warlock but not as powerful as, say, Grevane or Corpsetaker. And early on, he was being watched closely enough that Morgan would have had a chance to take him down before he could do large-scale damage. So it wasn't worth angering Eb to try to kill him (directly; Morgan did try to goad him into a fight in SK).
But being Warden of Demonreach elevates him to a potential worse-than-Kemmler threat. If Harry wanted to, there's a pretty good chance he could destroy the entire White Council (extract a binding oath from some Mab-level entity to do it in exchange for being released).

exactly. Demonreach was the turning point and shortly afterwards he became Winter Knight.
Would Harry even need to make a deal with a Mab level entity? If a warlock tapped into that lay line running through there he could probably take down the world.

Nah, it's a damn strong Ley Line but by no means the strongest in the world, and most stronghold including Edinburgh and Chitzen Itza are situated on whole nexi of ley lines. While a strong tactical resource, any one ley line is not unique enough in itself to challenge the world order. Now, a pile of entities who's ambient presence alone leaks a ley line, that's a much stronger and rarer resource

Well I called it a ley line but is that what it actually is? Gatekeeper warned Harry about it. I suspect it something else.... Something like a drainage line that bleeds the prisoners power out somewhere else to keep them from escaping. If Harry tapped into it I suspect he'd be tapping into the power of dark gods, and have their power at his disposal.
