Absolutely! I've only read the next three or so LN's in the series, for the longest time I thought that the only fuel to the "Kyon is God" fire was that Haruhi picked him despite his normalcy, which could easily be explained by any variant of 'she likes him'. But the LN's totally made me rethink that a ton, so now I'm pretty 50/50 on it. Either way, there's a bit of coincidence on both ends of the spectrum based on my knowledge right now.
