It's also kind of funny that this is Snape and Malfoy, both of whom are connected to Occlumency by Rowling. Occlumency, which she relates to cutting oneself off from feelings, which both Snape and Draco consider potential weaknesses even though they seem at heart more emotional than Harry (or in different ways).
Yes! That was what I was thinking while I was reading your post. The weird thing is that I think Harry either represses his feelings or he doesn't know how to feel... The way he reacted to Cedric's and Sirius's death, for instance. We don't see him really feeling anything. Hmmm... I would think about that, if I had time!
