Dana:
Although I think the entire wand thingy is totally confusing as Harry 
did not magically disarm Draco but just grabbed the wands Draco was 
holding out of his hand, I think I understand what DD plan was about 
which unfortunately would have been not fail safe for Snape entirely. 

DD asked Snape to kill him and because this death was pre-arranged 
the wand would have been left without a rightful owner with no 
possibility to ever be claimed by anyone else because Snape would not 
have technically defeated DD. I do not know if DD took in 
consideration that Snape might get killed for it but essentially my 
2cent is that DD wanted Snape to end up with the wand not being its 
true owner and thus the wand being just like a any other wand. I 
think DD was counting on LV not killing Snape because he was supposed 
to be a loyal servant. 

LV did not kill Lucius when he took his wand. If LV already had taken 
the wand from Snape but it was not enough to perform the promised 
amount of magic then killing Snape for it would essentially not have 
mattered, the wand would never again reveal its secrets. 
Unfortunately the entire ordeal gives me the vibe of major lack in 
logical reasoning on part of the author because if the wand would not 
perform while taken from Snape, wouldn't that have aroused LV's 
suspicion that something was up with how Snape came in possession of 
the wand? Anyway I think DD meant LV to lose interest in the fable 
surrounding the wand because after he would have taken it from Snape 
he would discover it was nothing more then an ordinary wand. 

JMHO
