but from a Doylist perspective, it's a minefield of sensitive topics...

I doubt Thomas will much like the theory either if Harry ever brings it up.

But that's because he's Doubting Thomas.

Conspiracy Theorist:
More like pouting Thomas.

vultur:
Eh, I think (beyond the out-of-story reasons Jim wouldn't do this) Starborn are primarily about the reality/Outsiders conflict, which operates on a different level from the Heaven/Hell conflict. The Heaven/Hell conflict is about individual moral choice and good vs. evil; the reality/Outsiders conflict is about the stability of reality.

I do think Harry dying and coming back has "activated" his Starborn potential somehow. In WN he needed Lash's help to escape Vitto Malvora's Outsider-fueled mental attack, but in CD he can stand up to HWWBefore directly in mental combat.

Though he was able to defeat HWWBehind long before that... but I think HWWBehind wasn't really trying to kill Harry, and didn't do the mental attack thing. Harry was clearly able to affect him though...

Conspiracy Theorist:
I am pretty sure one of the nine billion names of Harry Dresden is “idiot”.
