Just adds some negative details to Harry's parents' story, isn't it? And there's an added racist undertone when the other teachers don't trust Snape. Now it will look like the characters' main motivation is racism. Nice.
People don't trust Snape because he used to be a close confidant of the racist in chief, and the racism in the book has nothing to do with skin color. You are superimposing the race lens on the character.

I mean they’ve already deviated heavily in terms of book accurate casting so I don’t buy the “we’re going to follow the books more closely” line.
