I still harbor suspicions that one of the reveals for the finale will be that Dean is adopted, which would neatly explain "the Winchester boy" line. And, if the going theory that all the specials are first borns holds true, it explains why Sam was 'chosen' and not Dean (apart from their age -- all the specials seem to be 23).
I really hope it's not so though (though it would neatly fit into your theory of breaking Dean down) because so much of Dean's dreams and identity are tied up in his family to a very unhealthy point. Broken!Dean is fun, but that's just...too much ouch for me. Woe!
Interesting theories, though. I need to mull on them some more (and maybe hope some of them play out!). :D
