That is true.
However.
There are strategic reasons for the scum to pressure the players at the top of the order, first.
Furthermore if I was buddies with elvis, I sure wouldn't bus her, because that would bring our wild pyjama party in the QT to a sad and premature close. Some of you may interpret this as WIFOM, and that I might have been in fact bus'ing elvis, so be it.
The reality is that elvis would not be a top choice of her buddies to bus. ESPECIALLY if scum, at the top of the order. She'd be way too useful. Yeah, WIFOM. But I doubt it in this instance.
However a townie at the top of the order is an excellent wagon to pursue and get a free claim from.
Thus I think this wagon had lots of scum on it. They had to figure that a player at the top of the order would have a claim they could extract, escape a lynch, without getting their hands dirty in an actual lynch.
Paraphrasing a role PM takes seconds, fabricating a good fakeclaim takes an eternity.
