There was one part where they were talking about what would happen if Harry were not raised by scientists, and EY basically describes canon.
... yes, and? They weren't making fun of canon, just joking about it. Canon!Harry could have made much the same jokes about Rationalist!Harry.
But it only matches canon halfway. They're describing Harry raised by James and Lily, not by the Dursleys. They suggest that Harry and Hermione won't be friends, although later suggest that they'll at least be allies. And … another difference, I'd have to look.
