Kamion:

How about a bottled Pensieve message from Dumbledore himself
given into Snape's care? Snape could have given that... maybe forced
upon Harry when the time was ripe.

And Harry had the experience to distinguish a tampered memory from an
untampered one. Would have given the Slughorn affair more meaning.

But I admit: a Deathbed confession is always more dramatic. However
Snape bending Harry by the neck over a Pensieve: " Look for yourself,
you fool." could be as dramatic as well.
