It is too soon to even name claim. Think about it. Knowing the name of a villain isn't going to help. Superman was in this mafia game just to show you how absurd a name claim would be. The fact that you don't account for this is causing me to suspect that you're trying to make me believe you're dumb town instead of scum since the two often seem similar in style.
As per my previous promise the reason why a role claim would be bad is because of the type of roles we have dealt with so far. The following is similar to the reasons why name claiming would be a bad idea. Insane cop? Safeguard? These roles are pretty funky. The fact that at least eight other people have similar powers should throw off a red light that there could still be major problems, even if town tries to work together. This is not even factoring the possibility that mafia could have similar abilities. The presence of role blocker alone should make you aware of how dangerous it could be if mafia knew how many and which abilities were used by which people.
