You had no way to effectively disprove her until she shared what she knew. Wisely she waited to do so, and you did, too. The Cobbler's point isn't to commit suicide. You weren't going to stick your neck out that far.
The cobbler's point is to create confusion and keep wolves from getting lynched, even if it means getting themselves lynched in place of a wolf. There were few enough people about that I could have called her a liar, bumped her into the lead with my vote, and created enough confusion that everyone else would have been paralyzed to do anything. With out any contention at all, everyone was confused and unsure of what to do. Imagine if I had contested her claim with one of my own!

The next day, a lynched seer with no reveals, and one known cobbler, who most people would have voted for and lynched, and that's two days you don't catch a wolf. That would be a great move for a cobbler. I should know, I've been thinking of that possibility since my first game with Nogrod. And you obviously haven't played with me very much, because I would definitely put my neck out like that. I have before, and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again.
