How about replacing the chance of being a miscreant with the chance of seeing a "Random idea:" message at roundstart.
It would be exactly the same, but phrased differently as to reduce confusion.
Trying to put myself in the shoes of a new player, I'd be much less inclided to think I can do antag stuff if what I saw was preceded by "Hey here's a random idea" than if it's preceded by "You're a miscreant!".
It makes explicit the fact that it's just an idea or suggestion, and doesn't make you feel like you have a status different from regular crewmembers.
This could also be an opportunity to edit out some suggestions or add new ones.
