It's a rare strategy to claim an important role, for a retributionist, but logically speaking claiming Mayor for a useful role (such as Retributionist) can help him/her, for example you could claim that then the next night you ret someone, it can attract Mafia, NKs, or Coven to target you, but it still can backfire if a Vigilante is also suspicious and tries to attack you, so you could claim mayor but you must inform someone specific to confirm that you're actually a retributionist.

But since this is technically a riddle, and that your hint is also an irremovable rule, so I'll just follow it and see if I can come up with another answer (Which is a big no for me rn)
