see i'm kind of approaching it from the lens of room scanner and miller being mutually exclusive. i don't think we have a miller if we only have a 50/50 shot of identifying scum through a positive scan. if a room scanner exists, i don't think miller exists. scum lea wouldn't claim miller if she assumed a room scanner exists because miller shouldn't exist in that setup.

I mean you can read the arguments from Lopen and Corrik above. I personally think a Cop that gets back either a "No person in this room is scum" or "One or both persons in this room are scum" can exist with a miller. Scum had reason to believe that style of role could exist because Peaf's role operated the same way. Miller could exist to give a false positive, since scum is low numbered and a cop scan would be absolutely fatal to them.

But I genuinely don't know enough about proper game balance to tell you one way or the other. I just think it seems possible and either players or host could interpret the balance differently.

Here's my real argument. Do you think Lea is more towny than Corrik, Kirby, and Red?

I think definitely not between Corrik and Kirby. And I personally think Red is probably town, so I'm willing to "vote Lea" here and follow Corrik's analysis. At worst we lose a Miller, right?
