May be Hermione the rules nut is not the best example.  How about a 
parallel of Snape and the other rules nut in the present generation --
 Percy Weasley.

Percy fits better with the description of 'rules nut, strong desire 
to be the teacher's pet'.  Hermione, at times, allows rules to be 
broken or at least, bend.  Percy, on the other hand, seems to think 
that rules are absolute.

Percy is also ambitious and tends to take himself too seriously.  He 
is constantly teased by his popular brothers.  In fact, everyone in 
his family, except Molly, think of him as a bit of a joke, despite 
being Head Boy, excelling academically and professionally.  Would 
Percy really turn his brothers in?  He doesn't seem to have much 
bitterness right now but could it be that he just bottles it up 
inside, waiting to explode?

The only divergent between them is Percy comes from a happy, close 
family whereas Snape's family is still a mystery.
