Annemehr:
I do not understand your point. Lupinlore (msg. 120090) was exploring
a seeming contradiction in the text: that, while telling Harry to
clear his mind of emotions, Snape was showing plenty of emotion
himself. I thought that post was a good one, and it had nothing to do
with Harry's offense in looking into the pensieve, or the time when
Harry used the Protego spell.

Maybe if you'd quote Lupinlore and answer point by point I would
understand you better.
