It doesn't seem like it's ever going to be mentioned otherwise, so I thought I should tell you this:
Lesswrong is writing a story, called "Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality". It's just about what you'd expect; absolutely full of ideas from LW.com. I know it's not the usual fare for this site, but I'm sure a lot of you have enjoyed Eliezer's fiction as fiction; you'll probably like this as well.
Who knows, maybe the author will even decide to decloak and tell us who to thank?

Not having the same father would tend to imply not being genetically the same, yes.
This isn't the Harry Potter we know.
He does have the same genetic parents; it's his biological aunt, not his biological mother, who married someone different in this timeline.
I feel rather foolish now. Of course he does.
Should still be a genetic reshuffling, at least. The point of departure seems to be before his birth, so the butterfly effect would be in effect.
