Aura:
Going with the "the title is archaic' theory, maybe all Hogwarts profs
technically hold the title of "master/mistress", but Snape is the only
person insecure enough to need to invoke that title.

Although Hagrid did specifically say that Snape is "the master of
potions." Brit people on the list, are you sure "master" can't indicate
some kind of degree or standing? Cuz that's the only way this makes sense
to me: Snape has some kind of extended education or practical experience
that has earned him an additional title.

BTW, I'm new here. Pleased to meetcha all.
