Very well said. 

Slightly off-topic, but but when am I not... I think there's a 
general difference between the Draco-fans and the Snape-fans. Draco-
fans want to **save him**. Whether they want to reform him into a 
good guy, or just take him over and make into into a GOOD bad guy, 
the key is THEY CHANGE HIM. Canon!Draco has few fans.
