How are faithful expecting to win if both traitors and faithful are voting off the most intelligent players?

It completely makes sense that the traitors would vote off the most intelligent / observant faithfuls. They’ve realised from past seasons that traitors only win when people like Meryl and Molly are in the final.

Somehow, faithful are also taking the same approach. Anyone who seems intelligent is voted off for being ‘suspicious’ and ‘acting like a traitor’. Surely they should realise that it’s not in their benefit to vote off these players.

Edit: thanks for the comments. I now realise that the game won’t end if faithful are really good at catching traitors. Traitors will be allowed to keep recruiting until the final 4 so there isn’t the same incentive for faithful to catch the traitors early.
