You can't have "other worst memories". Once one memory has been
declared to be your worst, semantically it sits alone. It either is
or isn't.
You can certainly have a collection of worst memories. But JKR did
not entitle the chapter. "One of Snape's Worst Memories" or "Snape's
Horrible Memory" or a million other titles that would have suggested
ambiguity. The only way for it to be supplanted is for Snape to
create a memory that is worse than the one we saw.
This IS Snape's worst memory according to JKR. She said. It is
canon.
Golly
