And if Snape's counting on that then he's a)very very sure of his value to
Voldemort, b) loyal to Dumbledore to the point of taking extreme risks - and
I mean above and beyond the 'normal' risks of spying here, or c)insane.

Because I'm not sure I'd want to risk my life on the assumption that the
insane psychopath I was pretending to follow was going to act in an
incredibly reasonable, forgiving and logical manner.
