I still don't like the idea that essentially DD kills Snape
because he does not know about the Elder Wand (and DD does
not let him know about this part of his plan) and DD plan
to have Elder Wand power end with him although does not
exactly work out. (since Draco disarms so he becomes true
Elder Wand owner)
I suppose though this is like all the other "parallels" that
can be drawn in the series...since Snape kills DD in HBP,
isn't it fitting that DD (actions/choices) kill Snape in DH
... also it can be argued each was mercy killing? (DD going
to die anyways and Snape wanted to die after Lily's death,
but DD convinces him to live and act out of love for Lily)
Again, I still have more trouble with DD choice/decision and
how he treated Snape here ...
