I am commenting on / joining two posts here.

The phrase recently used by Iris in post #89470
'Put yourself in my shoes'
is literally what is experienced by Harry when he enters the pensieve,
especially the OoP occasion containing  Snape's thoughts.

The 'Albus Dumbledore Must Die'  recurring theory plus the strong
belief AD seems to have in prophecies may lead to:-

Sybil Trelawney making a third prophecy,

"Beware Halloween, for the centaurs revolt.
..For too long.... family member...(c)harmed goat.

..Death comes when you aid your brother.
..Time is up...the Stone is...no more... bother."

 Having warning of AD's imminent death, 'plans' can be made.
AD informs Harry and puts all useful memories into Pensieve for 
safety.
He tells Harry to absorb/view them for his rapid development, and,
to return to the pensieve regularly after AD dies.

It is the problem with prophecies, that the 'knowledge' derived
from the prophecy leads one into acting in a manner that tends to 
bring it to fruition.

Of course, leaving the useful, (to Harry), memories in the pensieve 
could be the cause of AD dying, he is lacking a crucial memory at the
critical moment.

Does anyone else feel that the pensieve will be a great cramming tool 
for accelerating Harry's learning ?
