That seems like a very anti-town approach to the question. They could lie of course but if theyre town they have no reason too. Quite the opposite in fact.
I actually think Aecioo looks pretty bad for the way he answered fwiw. He was really non-commital in his answers and basically just said oh you can just go read it and had no memory of any strong town plays. It struck me as deliberately trying to not give too much away.
Your assumption that a player would lie when asked a simple question also pings me that youre head is in a lie first place too.

If he's scum and knows he has tells concerning his alignment, why on Earth would he be truthful about them? That's the issue. If you're town and he is scum, he can dictate the information you are allowed to see. It's better to get a community perspective of the person rather to put the cards on their table.

He didn't respond great, but my first impulse on the exchange is you were both scum and faking content just to do something. Was it alarming? No. The issue is you didn't follow it up. You didn't probe him far. You didn't ask other players what they did or didn't like about his responses. You just let it be and fell off the map. That lack of followthrough doesn't feel like you were ever that interested in his responses.
