I see what you're trying to get at here. But here's the difference between Kidnapper and Jailer-

Jailer- They don't know who or who isn't town, except confirmed townies. You can't just execute random people because they might be town.

Kidnapper- Who cares, its not mafia. Literally every role poses a viable threat to the mafia, so why not just execute? Also, this'll really make it harder to win for the arsos.
