Paul:
Perhaps, (and this may have been discussed in a thread I missed) the
potion in the basin is a potion of Voldie's creation that will have
NO effect if Voldie drinks it, but will addle the brains of anyone
else who drinks it. If the potion had been made before Voldie was
vaporized, it would act as a sort of "burglar alarm". If any one else
drank the potion and suddenly became " addled",( for no apparent
reason), that would be a tip-off for Voldie or another DE like Bella
to go and check the status of the horcrux.

Paul, with more food for thought. (maybe way off base)
