Sue here:

This brings up an interesting point - would he have used all that stuff if he had known 
that was Snape's old textbook? There is great irony when Harry thinks he has learned more 
from the HBP than he ever did from Snape, when, all the time, he IS learning from Snape, 
without the personal confrontation. (Maybe Snape should have made his living from 
writing textbooks? Actually, half the time, Snape's complaint is that the kids didn't bother 
to read their spells carefully from the board. When I did cookery at high school, the 
teacher always insisted that the absolute  first thing you do is "read your recipe!")
