TBAY: More Snape, Snape and Snape

All this Snape awareness has brought something to my attention. I 
know that at this point, it is extremely unlikely that some point of 
canon has not been addressed, but I didn't find anything, so here 
goes:

Just to add to the Snape confusion of who he supports, is he a double-
 or triple-agent or whatever, let's go back to the Dark Mark summons 
to the graveyard. All the DE's apparated to the family reunion when 
summoned, except for a few. At the time, it is likely that our 
professor was preparing for this term's classes at Hogwarts. From 
whence, one cannot apparate. What if this was the primary reason that 
he wasn't there? Victimized, or saved, by the conflicting curse 
syndrome? If so, then maybe his absence from the circle can't be used 
to infer anything?

Carrying the condition further, can we be certain that Hogwarts is 
the only wizarding location that is similarly protected? We know that 
some of the missing were in Azkhaban, but what if some of the others 
who didn't show were simply behind a curtain of protection, too? What 
if Voldemort's influence is greater than we think?

It would be just like Voldemort to forget about this, too, when he is 
taking role and making comments about the missing. For an Evil 
Overlord, he does miss some important gotchas.

~Constance Vigilance, who is so outclassed in this group and rarely 
has anything to say, hopes that she has actually presented something 
new to the party ~
