The question is a rethoric question. Serves to have a realization , not a 'gotcha' .
Its a move that a scum would tend to do, its a little bit basic? Yeah but that doesnt mean it doesnt apply and I shouldnt question it? Lol
You dont know is there is a threat level, there being a distinction is something to take note of. If there isnt a threat, then not claiming doesnt matter. Its like... Standard play and idk what to tell you? Maybe I am more seasoned in factional games idk.
Even if there isnt a versus, revealing unnecesary info to catch scum doesnt help.
In my mind the immediate reaction of a town, seeing that the death tally has more of them than the other faction, should be to be more careful. A wolf may try to use the discovery of different factions to hold momentum. I saw a dissonance there and thought it was fake.
Then I was wrong and cooled off. Now I see you calling that I am 'rephrasing stuff' and am coming back to bite you and not letting go tbh
