So, given the evidence that Pensieves provide an objective account

Hmm Dumbledores pensieves in which Harry enters seem indeed very objective
but DD is pretty unemotioned in those scenes as I recall correctly and he's
wise enough to realise it is important to remember things like they happend,
whatever the emotions going with those events are. 

Snape in contrary is very emotioned in the event Harry watches & he seems less wise (at least at that time) to try to stay objective on the events so his memory of them might be changed due emotions after all in my opinion.

badly)
