Beside the issue of evidence, it seems like you would be allowed to summarily execute an intruder even after you subdued him on your own.

Wrong. If the defender has subdued the perp, then it would be rather difficult to maintain that the defender had good reason to fear imminent bodily harm or other felony commission, as at that point it can be shown that imminent bodily harm or other felony commision is highly unlikely.
