I'd heard that she wrote the epilogue before anything else and then didn't change a word of it. And honestly, I think it's her own biases that keep everything the same in the end.

That's like the writers of How I Met Your Mother having to do a hard swerve to Ted/Robin 6 seasons after we all realised they weren't right for each other because they only filmed one ending with the kids from the first episode... But with so much less justification!

(Why do I still remember this bit of trivia...?)

While there's a reasonable chance this is true, I also very clearly remember reading around the time of the third book that Rowling was planning to have the last word of the last book be "scar". I almost flipped to the last page of "Deathly Hallows" on the day I got it just to see if it was true, but was talked out of it because of potential spoilers. So I was a little surprised to see that it ended with "All was well" instead. That memory makes me think that she did change the ending, at least a little.

She could have said both at different times. JKR is a little prone to editorialising her writing history, I think - I mean, does anyone actually believe "Nagini was always secretly a cursed Korean woman with an Indian name and no problem with eating rats"?
