zgirnius:
Yes, I agree we won't get an explanation. I would guess Snape stopped 
using the book to write down new improvements, or he would not have 
forgotten it. He might still have worked on improving recipes, but 
probably switched to a more conventional place to record his 
experiments, once he became a teacher with a salary, an office, etc.

zgirnius:
Ah, thanks.

zgirnius:
Oh, I see! I just figured Snape redecorated when he took possession 
of it.

zgirnius:
I still think we will learn more about how it was swapped. This could 
come out in the course of learning THAT it was swapped. It doesn't 
have to, but it would not take much time or be much or a distraction 
to introduce this information at that time. Whether this will be 
because Kreacher witnessed the whole thing and knows, or they find 
Regulus's diary, or something, I could not say.
