At best, Gil is a hollow number on the good guy side. He can't help us with a vote, he can't offer suggestions, he can't give us any idea of what's going on.

This gives the wolves, if he isn't one, a perfect opportunity to manipulate the village into killing one of their own. Even if he's good, without him to prove it somehow, he's a blank slate for anybody to draw an identity on.

That's not good.

At best, he might exist as a way to keep the villager ratio higher. But I don't really feel like taking that risk and reading in the final narration something like "And then Gil started laughing hysterically and came to life just long enough to kill everyone."

Yeah...
