I’d agree - plus it’s interesting to think what might have become of the Dursley’s of they hadn’t had to watch over him then.
I think my main question with it is that no one else Harry spends a lot of time with turns that way. Although, you could definitely argue that it’s because everyone else are wizards, or that the others he did live with were at Hogwarts and there’s some sort of protection.
Dumbledore also may have figured out horcruxs sooner to if Harry was infecting the Dursley’s
Harry spent 10 uninterrupted years at the Dursleys, much longer than anyone else - and very few people would have started with the same level of antagonism towards Harry as the Dursleys (due to Petunia’s childhood jealousy).
I’m sure regardless, they would have ended up horrid people regardless - but perhaps much less so.
In my own head-canon, I have a visual of a knock coming to the (adult) Potters door one rainy evening in the future. Harry opens the door to find a drenched Dudley, head lowered and shoulders slumped, with a Hogwarts acceptance letter scrunched in his fist. His daughter is a witch!

Horcrux Harry caused the Dursley’s to be awful
Which this one isn’t too crazy I guess

Horcrux Harry isn’t that bad of a theory IMO. 🤷🏻♂️

Theory has a lot going for it though!

That’s a fairly popular one, though (I think) refuted by the author. Nonetheless, it is an interesting idea to explore.
