Whoops, you're right about that. Though, according to wiki Harry isn't technically a Horcrux:
So you can hold a part of a guy's soul and not be a horcrux?! This is why HPMOR is better than canon.
It's better than canon... because you disagree on what the definition of a made-up word should be?
I'm guessing that if Harry had been a proper "dark object', he'd never have been vulnerable to ordinary injury, same as the other Horcruxes weren't vulnerable to ordinary injury.
It just seems like such an arbitrary distinction. You're right, though. There are many ways this fic is better than canon, and that is a very minor component.
