If I were Harry, I'd be horrified to learn that I sent the woman I loved to Hell. If that's even a possible answer, I could see him not asking to avoid hearing that kind of truth.

That's my thought. I also agree with your point about not knowing how these things are determined in the DF. I recall something about how Hades gets most of its new souls from the Bloodgate nowadays. I don't recall if that was from Hades himself or a WoJ.

Z054J:
He could assume, based upon what he learned from Uriel in Ghost Story, at least that she was "somewhere" - but the first question is what happened to her soul when she turned.

Dresden may persecute himself for "murdering Susan Rodriquez" - but he didn't actually do that. If he had, the Bloodline Curse wouldn't have wiped out the Red Court. "Susan" was gone already when he killed the vampire she'd become. So - does the transformation obliterate or otherwise consume a person's soul, or do they get cast out and replaced by the demonic spirit that controls the flesh?

"You ARE a soul. You HAVE a body."

It seems most logical to say that in the case of a vampiric transformation, you lose the body. But, I don't recall what Dresden lore has to say on the subject.

   Actually I think Susan went to Heaven, because in the end she did sacrifice herself for her child.

That was certainly Michael's interpretation in skin game.

Not just HER child. I think that's the key factor why Heaven is a given (rather than a possible depending on the rest of what she did in her life).
