Honestly didn't know this had been done before, here I thought I was clever
Years ago I was the og of the idea but the NRG members at the time shot it down in review; I disagreed with the call back then but over time I came to appreciate their viewpoint and adapted it as my own, but the NRG members have shifted towards accepting the role. (So basically I've been on the opposite side of the NRG for that role for every time it has been brought up.)

Setup in 16 definitely feels scumsided to me, and I think that the best options would either be gating the roleblocker or adding more to the JOAT.
I'd actually add not one role, but two, to the JOAT; my recommendations would be 2/3 of {Voyeur, Commuter, Investigative-role-e.g.-gunsmith/rolecop/etc}.

I mean, in a sense, yes; they both serve to protect the JOAT at the cost of the JOAT not using an investigative action. I, personally, have no issue with a JOAT having two investigatives and two self-protect actions since they can't be used on the same night meaning that it takes skill to guess when the best times to use which are, and how to use them.
I also personally don't think three investigatives on a JOAT is excessive, but,
1: It's your setup so it's largely your preference, and,
2: Datisi is the primary so it's mostly Datisi's call
I would add "and receive No Result" to this to make it clear that "failed to investigate" = No Result. (Never underestimate players' ability to assume a message from the mod means something else, as without specifying No Result, it's possible they would think that the PM is due to their submitted action having been rejected or something like that.
This however is not a correct result for a Rolecop and is mandatory to change; Vanillas/Goons show up as "Vanilla" to the rolecop, not as 'no special role'. (The two might pragmatically mean the same thing but for a role that has a very specific ruleset, you need to follow the rules for the role.)
