When a character in HP says something is "subtle and complex" it means "I can't explain how it works but just go with it." I was going to respond, "But if that's what you believe then you should go with all of it, not just with half of it!" but perhaps I should take my own advice here. It doesn’t add up but if it did it wouldn’t be magic. ;) Maybe the most magical thing about it is that Harry worked it out!
Well, Harry has vanquished Voldemort through love and now he’s doing it again in a way Voldemort can appreciate, through power. The elder wand remains a tricky object and a wicked joke. The Harry/Voldemort stand-off is good and tense, and with the whole Draco thing leading to "... I am the true master of the Elder Wand" also very funny.
