Feigning death was the only thing I could think of that would keep Draco from having to battle Voldemort; there's no way he's ready for that yet.
I wanted to emphasize that Snape and Draco do still have a mentor relationship; we don't see them at it this year because I needed the time and space to focus on Harry, but it's there.
Snape will take steps, now that he knows how much Harry has suffered and is struggling against.
Ginny doesn't know everything, but I think she would recognize that.
