I think this is pretty balanced as-is. The main thing about starting with evens is you need a good way to get back to odds, and the vig accomplishes that. Otherwise, this setup is very close to a 9p setup with 1x Cop (there are some differences, but the gunsmith only gets a false positive on the vig, so it's a close enough comparison), and that has traditionally been viewed as relatively balanced.

I'd lean towards less balanced. Having too many power roles in a small setup cam be an issue due to clearing too many people. (As it is, I actually think this setup leans more towards the townsided side than scumsided, but admittedly, I don't have a lot of experience with balancing evens.)

I'm secondary reviewer, so technically, I do not need to pass the setup. That said, everything looks fine to me.

The changes look good to me. I didn't see any missed instances of the word.

The wiki tends to be accurate, so I would go with that.
(That said, it might be an interesting discussion topic for the NRG as to why backups are only normal for active roles and not for passives. I imagine it has to do with role interactions or something of that nature.)
