It should be noted that a double-scum-one-town neighborhood is rather negative utility for the town and incredibly positive utility for the scum; with a three-man neighborhood, the expectation of one scum wouldn't be out of place, but the presence of two is something that is unlikely to be expected, akin to making a scum-scum neighborhood in ability to potentially falsely-clear a scum. One scum neighbor dies, and the other is likely to be seen as conftown, barring them being caught by an unambiguous guilty. (Which to be fair, the setup has two potentials of getting.)

I'm not really sure there'd be an answer to that aside from maybe adding another town neighbor to the mix. (Does not necessarily need to be a VT, could be one of the PRs.) A 3-man neighborhood with 2 scum would massively go against the expectations of the town; a 4-man neighborhood with 2 scum might still go against the town's expectations, but they should at least
entertain
the idea.

But that's just my thoughts on that area.

nsg's the primary reviewer, so I mostly defer to her here.
