If town have 4 TS gone (RT and Any taken), and Framer chose for Godfather to be one of them. Then if investigator investigates (Yep English) the GF, then it's easy to deduct that the person with that results is mafia Exactly. Using that ability, it's just not worth it to make a Mafia member's investigation results change.

-- Mafia Roles that this ability would help a lot:

Mafioso: He should need to be able to claim anything, as he is the most common Mafia role (Once the original GF and Mafioso die, he's the only possible killing role left). Having that extra Invest result change would definitely help him if he isn't claiming Vet or Vig.

Godfather: He could get changed to Survivor or Exe. (Those are the most common claims for GF I think, other than BG) But Survivor is NB and that's a suspicious claim anyways. If an Executioner is caught, most of the time they're executed/lynched, sometimes even if they are successful.

-- Mafia Roles that don't really need it: (The rest of them obviously)

Janitor: He can easily claim Medium anyway.

Disguiser: He can take care of himself, you don't need to do anything about him.

Consigliere/Consort: They don't need the help whatsoever. They have the easiest Town role claims of every Mafia member.

Blackmailer: He really doesn't need it, he can just claim Spy.

Framer doesn't really get any help from the change anyway.

Out of the two Mafia Killings, there isn't much you can do for your other Mafia friends. It's a good idea, it just doesn't seem worth it.
