His interactions with the prana claim makes me feel he knows if it is true or not
You've really hedged your bets there, but I like it. On balance, I think Hoopla is town for taking and persisting with the "I want to lynch the claimed PR" approach and Prana...could go either way, but probably right not to lynch there today.

More flips will leave us better informed of how likely his role is
If he is scum i would rather pick out for today someone who could be his partner
hypothetical situation:
- we don't lynch prana, and mislynch elsewhere
- random townie dies N1 (say me, for example)
- on D2, prana-scum claims he watched some other townie visit me N1
- mislynch townie D2
all of a sudden, you've let scum dodge two mislynches, because the town didn't have the cajones to make a tough choice on D1

the primary utility of an investigation role is that its hidden and can collect results. its been exposed - if it is town, it has little to no value now.
another possibility: what if he's town and scum has a RB and prana claims no results? that would look awfully suspicious on D2 and we end up mislynching then in an ill-fated game of wifom, when we should be dealing with it today.
This is very wrong. He's a claimed investigative in a game which could easily have protective roles, and therefore he might actually survive and provide some info. It could be a fakeclaim, but it isn't true to say he is completely useless if he is town now.
Your final "possibility" which suggests a risk of mislynch tomorrow is somehow worse than a surefire mislynch today is odd. Also giving him ideas of what to claim tomorrow, probably not helpful. Well, my Hoopla town-read evaporated quickly....
