An interesting chapter indeed.
It was strangely poignient that Ron should have had a moment of clarity and heroism at the end. His life was twisted by his own ambitions and Dumbledore's lies but, at the very end, he was gifted with a warrior's death for the cause in which he genuinely believed.
I hope that Ginny didn't escape from the hospital. If she gets out she would make Bella look like an inoffensive kitten by comparison and would have a homicidal fixation on Harry and Hermione. BTW - A nice touch to refer to the DH Epilogue as, perhaps, being one of crazy!Ginny's fantasies made real.
Snape is in trouble. However, to save his worthless life, he will drop Dumbledore right into the nasty stuff. The trial should be quite interesting to see, with the presiding judge ending up being indicted as a co-conspirator.

- That was what I was after, though many felt that he should have died in a much slower and more painful way.
- Ginny was taken back into care when the Aurors arrived to witness reducto #22...
- I like the idea that the Crapilogue was all the fevered imaginings of a damaged mind... it would explain so many things.
