The player that becomes Vanilla might decide to hide the role that the Mafia Vanillized, so the Mafia’s Rolecop would counter such a thing. Additionally, the player is not permanently Vanillized because if the Vannilizer died, then they would get their original role back, even if they did not know this.
If I made Publicizer a Cop, and Death Delayer a Doctor, then they would be automatically cleared as per Bulbagarden’s forum meta and the game would become a claim game. Publicizing a Cop check is overpowered, so the delay and temporary decreased vote power amends this power imbalance. Death Delayer is a guaranteed death delay for the entire game, which doctor does not provide. I believe that also taking into account the other roles in the game and the Publicizer and Death Delayer’s own unique strengths and weaknesses compared to their role’s traditional versions, that ultimately they were balanced while also not being too obvious; and they could even be countered with the Mafia’s own role and the Beloved.
