You can't really forge wills into hinting he's town. TIs should be very vocal about their wills every day once they reveal themselves, and once they do you can't really "confirm" yourself as town if the TI has posted who they have investigated. He isn't as versatile in claiming as if he gets investigated he can only claim Lookout, a rather hard role to be in the TP-Lookout meta. Disguiser can claim practically any role, and Hypnotist has a lot of roles he can somewhat act as. It is super powerful and important being a "confirmed town" as evil in ToS, as you can get away with a lot if you appear to be important, even for a few days.

Forger also takes a bit of time to make a decent will. And you need to know what role they are first, but if the person says their role, then it's harder to frame them as they're likely posting what they did. Which means you need a consig to have time to do that before they confirmed themselves. Blanking the will just makes you a discount Janitor, and you already are basically a discount janitor because at least Janitor has Medium (although a hard role to confirm yourself as, Medium can work) and Retri (possibly extend yourself 1 more day before lynch)

And then Spy just sticks a middle finger at you. Spy does that to a lot of mafia roles tbh. But Spy bullies the hell out of Forger.
