My reasoning is the same as for the werebear scenario: the forces of evil are split; therefore, the non-lover werewolves are in just as much of a predicament as the innocent non-lover villagers. There are THREE sides, not TWO. Even though five people would be a potential danger to the village, there is one werewolf plus all the "innocent" villagers who are against the non-lover werewolves. So it's fractured. Therefore, the need for an extra werewolf to balance things out in a three-way game.
