Too swingy
Imagine a Mayor, Transporter, Escort and a Vigi claim get into these results lol

Essentially a post-mortem lookout which is discouraged.

This is more like a Psychic than anything else, imo.

Psychic is pretty bad, though, and even if Psychic were good there wouldn't be much reason to add more roles that do the same thing.

(The fact that it will always see exactly four people regardless of actual number of visitors makes it not a post-mortem Lookout.)
