On top of that, Palps has battle precog. Even if Harry got the drop on Palps, he still dodges without a problem. Harry would have to apparate right behind Palps in order for Palps to not have enough moving room in order to dodge. But, if Harry does that, he ends up in pieces, on the floor.
Hmm.....Palpy is never shown dodging blaster bolts. See what I did there?
Yeah, and Jedi/Sith precog has been proven time and time again as being imperfect.
BTW, Harry is being gimped here. He "knows the spell", the death spell, he knows several dark spells, why cant he use them? Palpy is at full strength and can use everything he has, but Harry cant? Gimp. Oddly enough, despite being gimped, Harry still wins here.
Unless Palpantine kills him right away, in less than a second, Harry will cast a shield charm and deflect everything Palpy throws at him. Palpy never killed anyone that fast, ergo Harry casts the shield charm, deflects Palpys attacks, then Petrificus Totalus's him. Easy cheesy.
I now present this question: Harry casts a shield charm, Palpy cannot attack through the shield charm. What then?
