 What else is that Stopper of Death- potion doing than keeping them

I've heard a lot of people referencing this quote from Snape (about 
wizards ability to 'brew fame, bottle glory, even stopper death" 
from PS/SS), and seeming to interpret it as meaning 'stopping 
death'.  However, I always thought that Snape meant 'stopper' the 
bottle of death (i.e. put a cork in the flask which 
contains 'death').  In other words, he was talking about ability to 
brew poisons (which brings up a whole other myriad of issues, but, 
anyway...), rather than brew some sort of cure for death, or elixir 
of life (altho, this would be relevant to the plot of PS/SS).

Anyway, that's all I have to say.

Hope everyone is having a brilliant day,
