Still, though... Fred and George. If the relationships you cited were examples of the criteria to make a ghost, you wouldn't be able to take five steps without walking through somebody. Fred and George have operated as a unit almost their entire lives, to a degree that it's just wrong for me to think of them as separate. I'd like to think that Fred coming back wouldn't have anything to do with bravery or lack thereof, just that he'd feel it was unnatural to be separated from his brother like that. And hey, there's plenty of new jokes and games to be had that way! At the very least, how could he pass up the opportunity to help George develop some prank or another that works on ghosts? ;)
Of course, this is also the only way I can accept Fred's death without succumbing to a horrible gnawing depression, so.
