The Jester glitch defies the entire purpose of the role. Once everyone knows about the glitch and Jesters use it regularly, a Jester just has to say "Lynch me please, I'm Jester, I won't haunt anyone" and they will win every game effortlessly. However, the Jester is supposed to trick others into lynching him on accounts of him not being a Jester, which is far more difficult.

You could compare this to the Survivor revealing himself as a Survivor. However, you would claim Survivor to be let alive. Claiming Jester when everybody will lynch a Jester because of the glitch makes no sense (other than gamethrowing). The only reason not to lynch a Jester would be if there was some other, higher priority target to lynch every single day (which rarely ever happens).
