Sorry to butt in, but I believe we have to look at another possibility
of why DD wanted Harry to fetch Snape and only Snape to the tower top.
The most important thing is neither DD's nor Draco's nor Snape's life.

It is destryoing the horcruxes. 

DD has already almost died while destroying the first horcrux. I think
he needs Snape not to bring an antidote (that is an additional bonus),
but to help him destroy the locket. DD is in no condition to do that
task himself. Snape has assisted him after the destruction of the ring
and he seems to be quite an expert in dealing with dark objects. 

That would at least explain DD's peculiar behaviour at the tower
before Draco arrives. If what then happens on top of the tower is an
unforseen complication, an ordered killing, or a cold blooded murder
is everyone's guess. 

If you believe Evil!Snape was in on the whole horcrux business and
suspected DD was away to retrieve another horcrux, it seems at least
odd that he didn't attempt take the locket away from the weak old man
in front of him. For me DD's behavior makes much more sense if you
believe in Dumbledore's-man-through-and-through!Snape. But that's
just me.

Clio,
who thinks Evil!Snape is simlpy too cliche to be true.
