I don't know novice why you would plant a seed for mass-claiming as a wolf. But your argument that a wolf wouldn't because it is a pro-town thing does only apply if one agrees with you that it actually is a pro-town thing to do a mass-claim. You stated that but that doesn't make it necessarily the truth. We don't know the setup so imo it can be either way.
And with unfair I probably used a bad wording but I can't put that in a clear sentence in English. You posted:
and that reads for me like a politician who makes something (thestick is a wolf) seem like the truth when that actually is still up for debate. You don't try to interpret his behaviour neutrally. Instead you put your sentence in a way that subtly carries the message "thestick is a wolf". It is the same as with your mass-roleclaim. You declare (indirectly) something as truth without any evidence for it, just to lend more credence to your argument.
