Yes, and since Snape let Harry know that it was his job to report to 
Voldemort for Dumbledore, he had to make sure he seemed as believable 
as possible.  He said that Voldemort could detect lies.  If Snape 
gets out of the habit of calling him the Dark Lord, he's risking his 
role in the Order as well as his life.
