It doesn't make any sense. It's counter productive. And who the hell am I to be worthy of such secrets?

I've had to grow a lot as a person just to keep myself from flying off this crazy roller coaster and falling to my death below. In this example, you figured it out, you weren't given them. This is what I meant.

Basically, you saw them coming from a mile away because of how Story Potential works. For instance, even before The Deathly Hallows came out, we KNEW Harry was going to face off against Voldemort. Some of the Horcruxes had already been introduced. So, let's go back in time to only when the first six novels were released, and use your SP method to predict the final book.

Here, we simply have to ask:What makes the best story? What kind of twist would really shake things up? We know they work by placing a piece of your soul inside of an object after damaging it by killing. Voldemort had perviously attempted to kill Harry, so what if that counted as well, but as he didn't know, it just ended up inside Harry, the one he was aiming for with his spells? Well.. What of one of the Horxcruxes keeping Voldement alive.. Was witin Harry Potter himself?

Given this, and the idea that good always wins (Which is true in >90% of fantasy stories), we know that Harry must ultimately defeat Voldemort. Meaning the Horcrux needs to be destroyed. So, this could go one of two ways.

1-Harry makes an Ultimate Sacrifice, destroying himself and Voldemort at the same time, to also destroy his Horcrux, and prevent his return

2-..What we saw in the novels, with Voldemort destroying his own Horcrux.

So, what would actually be spoiling the "future" novel? Well, once again, I haven't needed to deal with this problem, but as far as I'm aware, it would be predicting the battle. Now, if you found evidence within the six novels (remember, in this example, the seventh has not been released yet, so it doesn't count) that would show that Voldemort does have a Horcrux inside of Harry, you can show it off, but don't try and predict the final battle.
