I am sorry, but I think it might matter.  Draco Malfoy becomes 
master of the Elder Wand by his 'expelliamus' of DD' s wand on the 
Astronomy Tower. The Elder Wand is not taken by Draco but buried 
with DD. Harry takes Draco's own wand from him.  This according to 
Harry, has made Harry master of the Elder Wand, because he has 
removed a wand from Draco.    Harry might not be right, he might win 
over VM because this is what VM believes and that slows up his 
reflexes, but we don't know that.

That's why if this really is the conclusion, I would have preferred 
a peaceful old age death scene for Harry.
