All in all, I think it's very clear that JKR wrote the scene in such a way that 
allows Snape haters to enjoy it greatly.


 Sandy:

I can;t believe I'm getting involved in a Snape discussion - groan! Even though Snape is dead, he refuses to die on this list. But I just have to jump in on this. I hated Snape. I had been converted to DDM!Snape, but I still hated him. However, I did not enjoy his death as it was written. Frankly, I had no desire for him to die, but? I knew he would. I expected him to die showing his true loyalties in the heat of battle, possibly protecting Harry. I certainly didn't expect him to be killed by that damned snake over a wand that he didn't even possess. I thought his death was horrifying and it nearly brought me to tears. And I HATED him. Nope, I didn't enjoy it at all.
