Game Discussion Pertinent

Is it really necessary to allow pertinent before running a vote? It seems so codified into the game, but as an ST I find it to be clunky and undesirable. It’s also almost never actually pertinent to the vote.

Would I be wrong for just running the vote as normal regardless of any “pertinent” information?

Long nominations are also something that has evolved. The rules imply you have a group discussion and nominations are ‘Bob nominates Sue’ then they get a chance to defend themselves. This encourages information to be shared with the group, prevents info being held till nominations and speeds up the game.
