codename theory is credible

Is the codename theory ever contradicted?

Well, the few examples people cite can be explained plausibly.

1) The LTK 'he was married once'. This one's easy, lots of people have been married once - no suggestion of Tracy.

2) FYEO PTS. Actually I think this bolsters the codename theory. Many have remarked how jovial Bond is when turning the tables on Blofeld. Would the 'Tracy' Bond be so flippant about taking revenge? I don't think so.
Laying flowers at the grave of the wife of an old colleague is not so unusual.

3) OHMSS reminiscing over past trophies. Again no contradiction - these are mementos left by his predecessor. Perhaps he even told the new 007 of his past adventures, or these trophies simply evoke imaginings of the adventures his predecessor had.

Conclusion: The codename theory is a perfectly credible explanation and is nowhere contradicted.

    It's more than that. It's the only way of looking at the films that works.

    As I said if it works for you, you have found your inner peace and are free to
    live a life of religious fulfilment. ;)

    " It's the only way of looking at the films that works"

    That basically kills any conversation on the subject.
    We are lucky to have such a genius as yourself to
    figure it all out for us. :)) so honestly a big Thank you
    for that. I'll sleep better tonight knowing you are on the ball
    with this.
    Luckily your statement means no one else has to join in, and I'm
    sure a mod will either ignore or close this thread, as you have spoken . :D

    Obviously I meant in my opinion. I've touched a nerve it seems.
