I think Clio's point was that since Snape was not the only adult who 
knew of (a) the end of the lessons and (b) their importance to the 
whole Effort, that they did not resume cannot be laid with any 
certainty at any one door. Blame could be shared among Snape, Remus, 
and Sirius, IF Dumbledore didn't know. It can be spread to 
Dumbledore, IF he did know. It's not just a Snape/Dumbledore equation.
