What's the town motivation in wanting everyone dead?
Town needs information to win, scum want to stop town from getting information. Players who give specific information are more likely to be town, because they are actually helping town. Players who don't want to give specific information are more likely to be scum, because they are actually helping scum.

A player can be coy if they want, but in this game, where there are no death reveals, all they are doing is delaying town from getting information. We won't learn who's scum by executing anyone. We have to figure out who's scum by putting together our puzzle pieces--which we only discover when players make specific claims.
