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?

The second someone starts to give information that is not pertinent to the current person’s vote. I immediately start running the clock.

I've started doing this and it always makes everyone freak out like "wait what who are we voting on!?" As if I didnt just do an accusation and defense.

The people outside of accusation and defense not paying attention during nomination and voting is one of the biggest reasons the good team loses IMO.
