You don't say! And here I thought Shakespeare was obliged to kill 
Mercutio so that Romeo would kill Tybalt, which, in turn, would lead 
to his banishment to Mantua and separation with Juliet. Shows how 
blind one can be.(Wonder why did Shakespeare neglect to dispatch 
Shylock in the same manner?)
But wait, Snape is still alive! It's Dumbledore who got himself 
killed. Does that mean that he's grown more interesting than the 
hero? I kinda see your point.
