RL you're correct that pharms flipping town would pretty much guarantee a mafia Sunspider, and that if Sunspider flips 3P it doesn't give us a commensurate guilty on Pharmacy.
My counterpoint, apart from the GUN ISSUE I detailed above: Lynching a 3P Sunspider is preferable to lynching a town Pharmacy, not only because 3P survivor will joint with scum at MYLO but also because town busdriver is an *incredibly* valuable role at this point in the game; it means the mafia cannot rely on their kill to hit the most valuable targets (or rely on it at all, if the driver gets devious). mafia!Sunspider going for a Hail Mary Pharmacy lynch makes sense even after the seedy reveal because at this point it's Her Or Pharmacy (with the accusation in play). BEFORE the seedy reveal, we could have lynched Pharmacy and had her flip town and Sunspider could still have claimed her item check got redirected or something so it wouldn't have been a straight-up death sentence, necessarily.
