For himself, at least, it would have been a better life, where Potions/DADA could have been an academic pursuit, Potter/Black leaving him alone more often, he doesn't join/isn't approached by the DE, and most important, he remains friends with Lily. On the other hand, it is a horrible but true fact that without Severus in the hopeless position he had to endure, the war may not have been won.
Long ago they made a movie called Back to the Future - the kid saw how his parents would have been if an event in there past had never occurred - I can just see a Snape raised in Ravenclaw and with Lily - what a difference! JK did say that it was possible that Lily would have ended up with Snape had things been different.
