Another bit of possible foreshadowing

Agreed. She might even have an use for such an item.

Just because he came back doesn't mean he didn't die.
Particularly not in a universe with Magic, Souls, Ghosts, and multiple afterlives

Neither does that mean he did. JB has played with the idea about the fluidity of the line between death and life throughout the series. Even Harry isn't sure. And I'm swiftly moving to the position of everyone in the book being an unreliable narrator.
A head shot would have removed all doubt. Picture Harry, as Scare Crow singing, "If I only had a Brain". ;)

Harry fell into ice cold water, in Mab's arms yet... The ice cold water is what contributed to his living, slowed down his body functions enough to keep him from bleeding out... A head shot isn't a sure thing either, depends on the pathway and the caliber of the bullet.. Near freezing water could have saved him there too, unless of course his brains were completely blown out.

Considering that Bob, Vadderung, Lea, Mab, and Uriel say he did, I'd say he did. Remember Dead=/=Gone in the Dresdenverse. Of course you've already admitted that you're on the "Literally everything anyone says to Harry is a lie" train, so I guess there's no point in discussing this further.

An argument in one quote.
