Keep in mind that in canon, "either" in the prophecy was used in its lesser-known (but legitimate) definition of "both". "Either must die by the hand of the other", but what really happened was that BOTH died by the hand of the other.

So if that persists in MoR, we should expect both Harry and Voldemort to somehow destroy all but a remnant of the other.

Good point.
