I think that what Pippin means (and I'm sorry if I'm wrong) it's that
if you take the Prank like a isolated 'incident', like we could do
before OOTP, it was possible that it was an exceptional act of
violence, and that Snape exaggerated, and saw a very bad and
dangerous act of stupidy like a try to murderer him.
With the pensieve, and Lily's words, we know that it happened often,
that Snape suffered (and probably give) more attacks than just the
prank.
He could see this like a peak of the Marauder's goal, and so,
honestly believe that they want his death, at least three of them
(he had no reason to believe that it was only Sirius's idea).
Am I right, Pippin?
Christelle, who wonder where was Peter this night, and how Sirius
though explain a corpse when Prongs, Wormtail and himself would
rejoin Moony, like they do every months.
