Well, firstly I don't know why - Flower invents slights time and time again. It would not be the first time she's come into a game with this sort of attitude because she's upset at me over one thing or another that isn't anything to be spiteful over.
As for why I think it would be spite? Well, she started the game looking for a reason to scum read me - as evidenced by how she not only misconstrued my accusation, but also demanded an immediate response. And when she got it, she didn't do anything with it, and simply wanted to just get me out of the game. Your guess as to why is as good as mine, but I'm, quite frankly, tired of her. No consideration for my claim, no consideration for the speed of the wagon, just straight up invented a comparison. You can judge for yourself if you feel her analysis was salient.
The reason why I think this could be plausible is you know, firstly she's done it before as town, and secondly it doesn't really fit with her as scum. So my question really is how much patience I'm going to have in putting up with her. Not much, I'll say that
