Excuse me? Ishibumi didn't kill Ophis because he himself liked Ophis, Ishibumi and the editor both fell in love with Ophis' design when they saw it and this along the fact Ishibumi felt that his original setting to Ophis' death was too tragic, so he changed Ophis' role into a mascot, learn to get your infos correct if you want to use it in a debate.

Second, Archer and Shirou can't trace the Excalibur, Archer said he can only trace an almost complete replica only at best. And yes Shirou did trace the Excalibur which caused his death. Also remember, when Shirou traced the Excalibur, he did it using Archer's left hand, so it's like a combined effort between them that made it possible. And if your talking about the 2006 anime, that sword is the Caliburn not Excalibur.

And third, no authors words are enough? They are the ones who made the story, who do you think is more accurate, the creator or some fans who merely follow the series. If the fans is so good that they can confirm things the author can't, then they might as well go start their own series.

Remember Ran while we can comment on the series and critic whether it's good or bad. We by all means have no right to say we are more correct/rightous than the author, that's like an insult to them by saying that i'm better than you.
