We're currently in modern times, I don't get how a modern interpretation is out of place.

It was written in modern times too, just those modern times were not these modern times. JK came up with the story in the 80s and 90s, which were very different from today's far more judgmental times. ANd JK herself grew up in the 60s and 70s, which were even more different than the 80s and 90s. I'd also point out that Snape and Lily are pretty much the same age as JK herself so they have the 60s and 70s attitudes, which are at least twice removed from the current readers (and especially from movie fans) mindsets. Snape seems to have been raised, in-universe, by a couple who were at best stuck in a 1950s mindset so you have yet another remove.

In any case appeal to "modern mindset" is a stupid argument and if you don't know why, just wait 20 years and see what the next generation makes of your attitudes, beliefs, and interpretations. They'll fling those high and mighty words straight back at you.
