The posts of SB I quoted earlier and where I asked him questions combined with my new conclusion just make me think very strongly that he is Merlin. Now we do not HAVE TO lynch him but I don't see any reasons to keep him alive in that case, either.
If there are arguments that can convince me he's not Merlin and actually town then we can let him live but his contributions this whole game feel like they fit the neutral spot very well.
There's no reason to expect "feedback for SB that'd tell him about a failed visit or finding [you] in a strange dimension" in this setup. That's just an expectation from other games. And grounds for killing him fall on "Information #5" from the setup, if he's neutral merlin, and not a town merlin. like it
