Well, here we go:

Harry Expellarimus Voldemort's wand away, Accio's a big club, Windgardium
leviosar's it over Voldemorts head and drops it, shades of Ron. :)   There
are ways to kill a wizard without AK.  Actually, AK is probably the fastest,
easiest way to die.  You're just . . . dead.  No extensive suffering, no
bleeding . . . just dead.  Now we all want Voldemort to suffer, right?  AK
would be too good for him.

I think this is more likely.  Voldemort suspects Snape betrayed him,
therefore doesn't think he will return.  If he did then return with offers
of double agency to Voldemort, he could've accepted.  When he was really
being  a triple agent.  I think.  All these terms confuse me.
