Snape as monster? Maybe. We could argue this for ages and I'm not going to. But not towards Dumbledore. Dumbledore was still issuing orders to Snape AFTER  his death, via the portrait - and wasn't it Snape who was shocked at the notion of Dumbledore's willingness to sacrifice a teenage boy to the Cause? He didn't have to like Harry to protect him. He'd kind of thought he WAS protecting him. :-)

It is just too convenient for me to consider where he died and how he died to be a coincidence and I do not quite buy your reasoning of it. After all if we were to follow that path, then every death in the books would have been by monster's hand. Lupin and Tonks just died, no monsters were waiting for them, no monster was waiting for Dumbledore unless you consider Snape to be one, etc, etc.
