With Snow sleeping, it allows David to pursue the death of his father. That is why they are doing this. He wouldn’t do it after he told her he wouldn’t if she was awake.
I don’t mind this idea so long as Snow has a genuine reaction and storyline *after* she wakes up and realizes that David did what he promised not to do.
