The idea of Sirius and Severus being half brothers is interesting and certainly resolves the enmity issue between them. It does, however, bring two thoughts to mind.

1) Snape would then possibly (legally) be entitled to the Black family fortune and home.

2) Phineas Nigelus when told of Sirius's death say's "the last of the Blacks is dead"? 

Any thoughts...
