It's not so much the "she isn't as dangerous as ducks" - part of it, but the preceding part that makes me nervous, the "I completely understand
Rikae's role now" -thing. That just doesn't look genuine.
Were she an ordinary innocent who just realised that
Rikae indeed is a cobbler she would have said something along the lines of "Yay, I see now why you think
Rikae is a cobbler and it fits", or ""I think
Rikae is a cobbler" - and then she could have inferred that she's probably less dangerous than the actual ducks. That could have been innocentish.
But she said she suddenly understood
Rikae's role
completely! Practically claiming she not only knew
Rikae was a cobbler but also that she knew what other cababilities, tasks and goals
Rikae had - and armed with that "complete understanding" of
Rikae's role she saw she was less dangerous than the ducks.
So it's a much more forceful defence - and is clearly based on something that is not true (I'm hesitant to use the word lie anymore after what happened I used it the previous time
). There is no way
Izzy suddenly gained full knowledge of every facet that went into
Rikae's role, but still she claimed to have it and leaning on it tried to prevent us from lynching her.
She didn't claim "complete understanding" of
Rikae's role for nothing. Making that kind of untrue claims have a reason behind them.
