If there is a 50/50 chance of the epilogue being interpreted as part of the novel (I think it would be higher) and a high chance of a sad epilogue (telling Harry Potter will die after a life well lived), then I don’-t think I would want to be long on survival.

The “spirit of the contract” is to speculate on whether Harry Potter will live or die in this episode. The epilogue is outside of this episode. That’s why they call that an “epilogue”.

The final segment of a book, which comes “after the end.” In both fiction and nonfiction, an epilogue offers commentary or further information, but does not bear directly on the book’s central design.
