If you don't know your win condition on day 1 then you are not truly playing to win. I'd like to see your face if you later got to night 1 and your win condition was "You win if you are lynched on day 1". Mafia is a team support unless you are a 3rd party role. You don't know your team or faction and can possibly hurt your side beyond repair during the time you don't know who you are.

If you are 3rd party attracting too much attention can get you night killed, so you need to know how to act, so read your pm especially considering the diversity of 3rd party win conditions and objectives. Whoops you were a day 1 lyncher and failed to get incognito lynched day 1. Looks like you loose

Also let's say you have a posting restriction. And you don't read your pm. Guess who's modkilled day 1 page 1? You!

Yes. It'd be more fun than what the current state of mafia has become.
If everyone played like you, how would you know what you are lynching? There would be no tells. Day 1 would be a complete popularity contest, random phase, or battle of who is least stupid

That wouldn't be mafia as there is no informed minority if nobody reads anything
