   Well all the time the E.W. changed alligance, the previous owner was   
   "WEAK" in some way.   
      
   The first owner was owerpowered while he was sleeping and beeing   
   completely drunk = weak   
   Another one was held prisioner in his own cellar by his own son. =   
   weak   
   Draco lost the phisical struggle with Harry. = weak   
      
   V. want's to own the E.W. to escape Death = weak   
      
   I would say that this fits into the idea of Wandlore. If you win a   
   wand it changes alligance. And you need to do something to win it. Be   
   it stronger, cleverer, braver, ..... A wand doesn't just jump into   
   your hand
