Yes it is needed. As I see it I could have used the power two ways
Secretively; If I happen to get nightkilled, hopefully hampering the wolves plans the next day.
Blaring from the rooftops- That would provide some protection for me from nightkills, however, I didn't think I'd be that threatened by nightkills initially because I'm a newbie, and since I've been a lynch target I figured the wolves wouldn't want to take me out. Therefore I tried to keep it secret so it would be easier to use if the wolves kill me later in the game.
Since it looked like I was going to die hanging, preventing a mislynch seemed more important than using my power to its full potency (and it's a rather circumstantial power anyway).
