Not to mention how he eventually became the secret-keeper, even if it was just as a gambit.

Is it actually canon that it was a gambit, though? Because when you come to think of it, rats can climb vertical walls, jump a yard, reach a foot, swim half a mile, squeeze through a hole the size of a dime, and chew through almost anything. The creatures practically have superpowers. And who can hide in plain sight like a rat? Peter did it for twelve years! TBH, I suspect that the Marauders learned early to value and make use of Peter's ratty abilities, and he would have made the ideal Secret-Keeper if it weren't for the tiny little hitch that he was already working for Voldemort.

Sort of at least, considering that Sirius was the first and most obvious choice, while Peter was one of the least obvious. That's part of what landed Sirius in Azkaban after all, as everyone thought that they followed the original plan and made him Secret-Keeper, which made it seem that he was the one who had sold the Potters out. I think it was Sirius himself who suggested it, but I may be remembering it incorrectly. (I think he says so in PoA, in the Shrieking Shack, when Remus is hurt that he wasn't included in it)

I definitely agree that that made use of Peter's ratty abilities. Overall a rat is a way more convenient Animagus form than a stag for instance! A stag can't really help you with pranking, after all.
