Off the top of my head:

Pros:
In this game there is a higher chance of hitting scum because I think most players that are active are fairly pro town.

It makes our choice much easier today.

Cons:
May not make our choice any easier if we realize the scum are hiding in the more pro town players.

If we miss we will be in the same situation tomorrow as we are now except scum get a chance to eliminate one more player, so whatever conflict arises may be more in their favor tomorrow than it is today.
This is also why analyzing the night kill is helpful. If scum believe that none of the players will analyze the night kill because they're afraid of wifom then they can just look at all of the player's reads list and kill the player most convenient for them to set up for lylo.

If they get called out on it then they're forced to make some kind of play the way Frederick is doing.
To clarify:

If scum believe none of the players will analyze the night kill then scum can just look at each of the player's reads list and kill the player most convenient for them to set up for lylo.

If the scum get called out from night kill analysis then they're forced to make a wifom play like Frederick which might not have been his intention.

So it prevents scum from killing whoever is most convenient for them and sometimes forces them into an uncomfortable situation. For example, what would Frederick have done had Casey decided she townread me? I think that's what he was wondering when he unvoted me.

I'll agree in the very least that the things Frog has said outside of analyses and theory don't sit well with me.

"Frogsterking killed Mush to set me up and then brought up night kill analysis when no one was suspecting me."

I don't see what was obsessive about my questioning of other players about the night kill.

In post 689, Fredrick A Campbell wrote:Frogsterking, why do you seem the most obsessed over what everyone thinks of the nightkill.
In the mafia format I have almost all of my experience in (livechat, roughly 5-20 minute days and 1-5 minute nights on average) I relied extensively on analyzing night kills to complement behavioral reads.

Part of the reason that method was useful to me was I understood how players of different levels approached their night choices in that format.

Things are different when players get a couple days to make their choice instead of a couple minutes and I'm not sure how much of what I know carries over to this format and I'm trying to learn quickly.
Actually, I just noticed that this answers the question "Why are you so interested in the nightkill?" and not the question I actually asked, which is "Why do you seem the most obsessed over what everyone thinks of the nightkill?"

So that you don't get to pretend to not understand what I am trying to say, let me put it bluntly. Please answer the question (Why are you so obsessed over what everyone thinks of the nightkill?)
In fact, no one was obsessed with what others thought about the night kill, so rephrasing the question this way doesn't make sense and looks like trying to skew night kill analysis in a negative light.

Since you townread Frogsterking, what do you have to say about my scumread on Frogsterking.
I don’t know how to feel about it cause I’ve read your case on him especially and I was kinda confused at how you were trying to explain it. So are you really scumreading Frog for asking everyone about the nightkill?

If I remove my reads of you both and I’m looking at this objectively I’d say posts is a much better made case then .

With that said, I can’t say it makes me feel good. I’ve wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt because I feel/felt like you were being unfairly scumread by everyone Day 1, but now it seems like you are doing the same thing to Frogster.

He shrugged it off when I asked him about it. That doesn't make me feel all aces about him.

I have plenty of posts about Frog. There's an ISO button for a reason. You can find this answer for yourself instead of requiring me to quote a load of posts.
