/So Harry helps with cooking, but any kind of skill he gained this way doesn’t translate to preparation of ingredients in Potions class. Nor him helping with cooking in DH

/Maybe this another consequence of JKR not rereading her earlier books. Although that is a good point that you make about Potions class. Others and myself have wondered why Harry couldn't cook for Ron and Hermione in DH, but I never connected cooking with Potions. Now I wonder what would happen if Harry's cooking skills did help him out and he turned out to be great in Potions. Would Snape treat him any differently or would he be even more aggravated

And Legilimency, which Dumbledore does wandlessly. Severus uses a wand when teaching Occlumency to Harry, but it is implied he can also do the wandless version. And Occlumency is wandless (by necessity, as it is truly defensive magic).
I wasn't sure so I avoided mentioning it, but you are right. Mind magic seems to be wandless magic so in theory anyone who mastered it can do wandless magic. Does animagi tranforamation requires wand?
The only thing that reliably saves Harry is not the blood protection but Tom's Horcrux. (Which Dumbles would really want gone, though only under circumstances convenient to him.)
Horcruxes are very hard to destroy. Other than some extreme magical means, as long as the Voldiesoul is there Harry can survive pretty much anything. (Now that doesn't mean he would survive it well and be able to enjoy a productive life. He might end up severely brain damaged and on life support, but he would live.)
Horcruxes that are objects sure, but horcrux that is in living creature I'm not sure. If this was Koschei the Deathless we were talking then yeah I would agree, but Jo's magic system is very wacky.
It's never clear whether horcruces are intrinsically hard to destroy, or if Voldie put special protections on those he created intentionally. Nagini was destroyed by a simple beheading-although since Neville used the Sword of Gryffindor, I suppose it was an extra-special Gryffie beheading with Nobility and Courage added. Draco wielding the Scimitar of Salazar could not have done it, though he certainly had the motivation.

Not that I'm criticising you, but now I'm wondering if I missed something.
