No, the same logic wouldn't apply to any other slot. The logic holds when you have an unprotected slot whose death neuters a very important town role. If he towns up in later days, cool. If he doesn't, he'll be lynched for sure late game.In post 719, Binary Star wrote:Plenty of good reason--DEB was widely scumread enough to be put at L-1. DEB hasn't contributed anything meaningful to progress the game state, develop reads, or make reading his slot easier. There's no indicator that DEB will do any of this if left alive. It only behooves us to lynch scum. The same 'well we can lynch it later if it survives' logic could literally be applied to ANY lynch on ANY slot on D1, too. Someone needs to eat the rope and I'm perfectly fine with the risk of losing a Doctor Enabler against the chance of catching scum here and now
I think the claim more often comes from scum though - it makes sense to have a mafioso as enabler, as removing one hurts both sides. The smart play here is to leave him be, have the doctor NOT protect him, and mark him for a D3/D4 lynch unless he gives great reason not to be in later days.
