That's true about Harry processing--like I said, I found it just plain bizarre that Harry named his kid after him given what his story really was. It really wound up doing an end-run around what I expected for Harry/Snape, because Snape was already dead when Harry forgave him, and it's a lot easier to forgive the dead, especially when you've just watched them horribly killed. I just felt like Harry really never had to face any of the things that would be really difficult for him. He faced metaphorical things, but he always seemed in his comfort zone, so that people always became good before he forgave them.
