Traitor lite

This possibility belongs in code ideas but I thought I'd run it through here first.
Ss13 has a lot of mechanics that don't see use because they're either banworthy as non antag but a complete waste of time as antag. Minor grief viruses for example.
If you go for surgery you basically know your doc isn't going to do anything fishy because if he was an antag he wouldn't be sitting in his department doing his job fixing you up.
My idea is what if we added a more minor form of traitor where basically the goal is to be as much of a dickhead in your job as possible without killing people.
Example from earlier - as a doc maybe if a dead guy comes in for treatment you harvest his organs becaise you're a sick fuck and have a small collection going instead of just fixing him. You don't actually have a greenbelt objective to go for so you have freedom in your minor antag gimmick but its stilla ban if you leave medbay to go on a murder spree.
I think it would add a lot of the minor paranoia aspects that tend to fade away as you get more used to metaing the game. Also more regular crimes for sec to look into as opposed to 'shit gotta kill the mass murderer again'.
Thoughts?
Yeah nevermind I forgot that Bagil was a thing, locking this.
