It could have been left alone, but I still say it needed to be addressed. In my mind there was no possibility five wolves had all failed to notice it. I was playing with the idea that it had been done by a very bold Kitwolf, just to confuse. Highly unlikely, but not impossible. I was amazed that she was still with us the next Day.
The only thing I can figure is that they were thinking we might be so confused by Kit we might, for lack of a better option, lynch her to be on the safe side. If so, that's pretty brazen.

x/d with all since Legate

That's what I thought might have been the thing. (Or some other unlikely thing, such as the WWs not realising she can't self-protect or whatever.)

But most of all. Since you brought it up again, I can't but reiterate that this is behaviour I absolutely can't understand from you. Ok, let's say I wake up on Day 2 and find a Ranger alive when I thought they should have been killed. What do I do? I keep it to myself!!! Why should I even open my mouth about it, unless I am a Wolf or a Cobbler? If I mention it, I'm only adding fuel to the fire of the Wolves, who may exactly have orchestrated this to have her lynched, or may accidentally draw out the real Ranger (if this was a mistake and the person isn't a Ranger after all), etc.

Summa summarum: I can't see a single benefit of bringing it up, and I can see a lot of ways that it can harm someone.

EDIT: x-ed with Lottie. But now I'm really going to sleep.

I honestly didn't see the harm. If Kit hadn't been the real Ranger, the bona fide would have known better than to counter-reveal. I just could not fathom it had been done innocently. That's all.
