That's why this overanalysing and eagerness to find reasoning, at this stage, is quite remarkable.
You're quite right. I'd say quite right. All behaviour can be constructed as Wolf behaviour, on all Days - not only on Day1. But that doesn't mean that we only get wolves by chance - even on Day1. I've seen a wolf picked on Day1 with perfectly sound reasoning a couple of times.

So I would not say "in all probability" but with some probability we'll get the wolf by chance. But why not try to increase our probabilities and aid our luck by trying to look for some actual points? I say it's in our interests to do so - and without it there is much less to be read from Day1 later in the game.

And the eagerness to find reasoning in this stage of the game is remarkable. Yes it is. And I think it a good thing...
