Why would Voldemort not look snakelike after four Horcruxes, but look 
snakelike after 5-6? Also, nobody has ever made this many Horcruxes, so 
it is possible that whilst DD may believe LV's appearance is due to 
Nagini, the stronger evidence to present to Harry is LV's control of 
Nagini. I think it was Carol who also made the point that all the Death 
Eater's appeared to recognise LV in the cemetry i.e. he must have 
looked this way before his defeat to Harry!
