Why would it?  Being a werewolf doesn't affect Lupin's humanity, 
after all.  People do tend to be revealed as part (non)-humans in 
Potterverse, it's one of the threads that run through the series and 
I don't see why Snape should not be a part of this particular thread. 
As I see it, exotic species in Potterverse, just like in Discworld, 
is a metaphor for ethnic minority in real life.
