Your argument is that King Arther fails utterly at being a hero... because Merlin existed.
Specifically your argument is Harry is not hero... Hero no get help from anyone... ignore the Argonauts forever.
Heros of course have never ever used magical items they didn't create personally.
Ignoring that I said Harry gets more hero credit for his actions after he offs the snake.... character is who you are alone in the dark. The other not a hero argument is Harry won only through dumb 'luck'. The luck being that Harry was the master of the Death's equipment. To believe that is to ignore Dumbledore. Dumbledore flat out set that up to happen. He used his own death (immanent as is was) to set up a Xanotose roulette. The want was Draco's... thus not the Dark Lord who failed to read the instruction manual. Harry inherited the cloak and send Harry on a quest for the ring. He sent Hermione the book with the legend in it.
The thing is that I don't think Dumbledore could figure out another plan... he was on a life span countdown. He learned Harry was the final horcrux... and there are only so very few things that can destroy those... and lobotmizing himself with a sword is stupid... fiend firing your own brain is right out. Basically, Dumbledore was reduced to killing off Harry with some method he could recover from and Dumbledore knew were the set was. Dumbledore basically had one item for a decade, one for half a century, and made himself terminal with the third. To paraphrase the Natural Enemy of All Who Live... if you have even a 1% chance of victory... take it. That it required Harry to be depressed and screwed up in the head to take it was unavoidable, as far as Dumbledore could tell. If he hadn't made himself terminal he may have come up with something better... but no. He had to wear the shining ring with uncursing it first.
Seriously, Rowling wrote a pretty much by the numbers hero legend and your calling him not a hero for it. I pose to you.... What are the details (the defining essence) of a Hero if not Harry Potter and not King Arther? Someone tell me what this 'Hero' thing Harry isn't is. Your definition of a 'Hero' is a Gloobleflarg... fix that or this topic is gibberish.
Also, I didn't leave out stuff after 5th year for giggles... I was responding to the Harry did nothing impressive like all these other characters by age 15. I'm sorry if you forgot the previous posts I was responding to.
