Kills all the Alternate Harry (including time travel) theories.
Cowl is NOT Harry, Cowl has access to Warden reports or Warden gossip (Peabody could have provided this, but the nature of the statement feels more personal than relayed by Peabody could account for), Cowl is NOT a Warden. Cowl isn't worried about going up against someone who makes Wardens nervous. Based on the fact that Cowl is in Chicago when the Sr Council is regrouping and hiding after the council got hit hard repeatedly and almost wiped out... Cowl was not on the Sr Council durring Dead Beat (or he would have been missed)... The most likely candidates for Cowl are the people mentioned when Eb takes his seat on the Sr Council or Cristos.
The above quote also kills Justin theories and similar people from Harry's past.

I don't think that quote kills everyone from his past. Someone might have been out of touch with Harry, and wondering if he missed something. Maybe some wizards are late bloomers, and develop power later.
Athletes do. In baseball, in 1988 they held an amateur draft, and one future Hall of Fame player was picked. Mike Piazza.
He was drafted #1390. They took 1389 other guys ahead of the best player in that year's draft. Late bloomer. Can magic have them?
Maybe Cowl knew Harry young, and wondered how different the man is from the boy. Remember, Justin last saw him at 16. Cowl sees a 30-something. Can be a difference. (I think Justin is dead, just an example of a past contact)

I agree, it doesn't kill everyone from his past, just people who knew him well while he had magic like Justin or Elane or Eb... really just those character from the ones we know. All of those know Harry is strong and wouldn't be interested in facing him in combat just to see how strong...
Harry wasn't a late bloomer and as far as we know Justin didn't show him off to anyone, so there shouldn't be anyone else from his past, though Morgan was watching him before Malcom died and Justin got him, so someone else may have been at that point too and they wouldn't know how strong he is...

Cowl's working with Mouse's Shadow, he's going to know about Mouse and his capabilities. It's obvious that Cowl recognized him.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Master of the Future, it’s quite clear that Ash is aware of Cowl’s ambitions, and that is to be God, not merely a God.
I have posited that the date of creation of the White God has yet to occur, but it will be due to the sheer weight of humanitys belief willing him into existence around a foci, maybe Uriel, maybe Lucifer, maybe an Outsider, but maybe both Cowl and Drakul think they have a shot at it. Once created God is not bound by linear time and will exist at all points and at all times in the multiverse as the pre-eminent power.
Cowl has outlined his plan to become god to his dog.
