While it is fairly implicit that Rowling intended Harry to be read as white, your points against him being POC don't really hold up. For one, last names don't necessarily help when tracing ethnicity. If we are trying to imagine how Harry could be POC and still be canon compliant, there are definitely enough unknowns in his ancestry to do so - and that's even before imagining something like adoption somewhere in Lily's family tree. And the ethnicity of the actor that plays a character doesn't necessarily reflect the ethnicity of a character - see the entire history of POC in Hollywood.

I agree with you that Harry is culturally middle class anglo British - though if we are assuming Lily's family was partially desi or black, you could further assume that Petunia might have rejected her desi or black culture when she rejected her magical powers and took on Vernon's 'acceptable' white middle class cultural identity.

All in all, I think it's an interesting thought process tat gets people thinking about their assumptions about ethnicity and culture and is valuable for that, if nothing else. Canon it is not, but stupid it is not either.
