OK. It took me awhile to think about the whole thing. And here is a few opinions on the matter Spoiler: 1. DD and Snape kind of worked out a quick plan on the tower a few seconds before Snape let loose with the curse. Let us not forget that Snape was very well versed in the art of Occlumecy. Which DD knew very well. So (IMO) in the seconds before he let loose. DD thought of a plan that he knew Snape would read. That would be DD style. What that plan is. I do not know. But I am willing to bet, That DD is not dead. But merely faked it some how. So that Draco can fulfill his mission. Snape would fulfill his oath. A LV would be convinced of Snape’s total loyalty and he would make an even more effective double agent.
Spoiler: That theory would fit Rowling's writing style of miss direction unless you pay very close attention to all the little settle undertones. Heck. For most of the book. I thought that Draco was using the Poly juice to turn into Tonks. and that's how he was getting in and out of the castle.
