Heee, funnily enough my belief that Harry will not die now much 
increased, I cannot explain why though. Maybe because the title would 
be too much of the spoiler in a sense if Harry dies.

Ohh, if this is also one of the underlying reasons  why she chose the

and will be resurrected ( come back from the veil or whatever).

Alla, who always ready to sacrifice Snape, but for whom Living Snape 
but suffering forever Snape would be more satisfying conclusion :)
