It would be pretty foolish for her to try it as Ferny, as well, unless she had a very good idea of who the wraiths actually were so she could avoid getting them killed. If there had been some sort of hinting to give her such an idea, she wouldn't have named Sally.
That's exactly the truth. We have to, most of all, bear in mind that Lommy - even if Brinn would be speaking the truth - would be Ferny, not a Wraith. It will be quite reckless to tell a name of a Wolf just to make herself a Seer. Unless it was a mistake, but such a luck? Again? When Brinn would have just dreamed of Sally? That stretches it almost beyond possibility.

Why don't we lynch Brinn first? Sally is tbe less experienced of the two, and therefore, she's the one I'd rather have helping make the kill choice toNight and advising Mr. Underhill. Besides, Sally's death is not going to shed any light on the Brinn-Lommy situation (if anyone is seriously wondering about it).
Let us not forget, though, that apart from Sally and Brinn, there would be yet another person to advise Mr. Underhill. But it is true that this idea is really not bad - I would go for it, actually. Only, it means discarding the possibility of the Wolves in (vain) hope leaving Lommy alive for the next Night, hoping that toMorrow might turn in the favor of Brinn and Lommy would be lynched (though, okay, not likely they would do that anyway - too dangerous).

Eexactly.

EDIT: Haha. I x-ed with Rune. Precisely, because when I posted my post and it appeared, Rune's post was already there too, just below mine. I like that.
