That's literally what it says, so yes.

At which point does red herring becomes bastard?

Being bastard doesn't mean it's not normal though. Though I suppose typically most players expect most games to be fairly standard if they are not themes. This generalisation can lead people to think there

is

a real cop if there is a deputy. It's misleading in the bad kind of sense as the player does not know it's going to be false/misleading ahead of time.

One thing I've been noticing is that some mods have a "night 0" kill to get their story started. Why not have a "night 0 kill" be the doctor or the cop or whatever other thing? Clever I think.

Except that would make the Nurse/Deputy actually assume a real role, since the doctor/cop died. I'm guessing the NRG wouldn't like that. It's basically making flavor directly impact the game.

What kanye said. Doctors don't ever get results, so no need to tell them "no result." You only need to do that when a result is normally given and expected.
