Well said.
I do think there's a difference between the enemy setting up Harry and Draco as future leader though. If they wanted Draco, well and done, and they'll do as you say. If they want Harry to lead, however, they are unlikely to be thrilled with his new role of invisible assassin.
Draco as future leader? Well, that just means Harry is the power behind the throne.
Which, to be fair, is pretty much correct.
Over the long run Harry wants to be a scientist and no politician.
World dom... er, optimization doesn't include politics?
He thinks draco is much more suited to dealing with the politics, and that it's much less work to optimize draco's morals and hand power to him than to figure out how to navigate a political atmosphere for himself.
To put it crudely, harry plans to use draco as a puppet.
But no doubt as a strong puppet ;)
