However, by not executing we're giving the spawn that exist free rein to hide, and increase in number, putting us in a tough position once we lift off. We do have the ability of the doctor and security to oppose them even if we're not lynching them, and if we're able to keep our doctor safe that could be a more powerful tool than just offing ourselves randomly.

Obviously if we vote, we're going to be influenced the person's role. Roles that can be easily replaced, or done away with, are more likely to get voted out. Without evidence i don't think we're going to garner much support for voting out important public roles. So I'm not sure how useful a vote will be, as we'll essentially be picking from a smaller subset of less essential roles.

I know there is the counter argument as well, that we need to establish voting history. But I am tending toward the opinion that voting might wait for a bit longer.

I understand your argument, but I came into today of the mindset we absolutely need to start voting, even if it's for someone with a lesser role only. We simply need to start building a vote history. It might be meaningless now, but we know how important it could be down the line.
