None of the faction descriptions tell you what benefits and drawbacks (if any) the factions give you. I've heard the Deathrace mafia occasionally helps you in a deathrace and that the Mutants faction lets you have a higher % of mutants in your gang, etc, but this is mostly ad hoc from a number of different sources, some contradictory.
Shouldn't this information be listed in the 'Gangs' description?
I'd like to make an informed decision before making friends/enemies.

I think you have just identified the only two effects that are actually implemented yet.

Does joining mutant faction basically give you a 100% chance to hire them? Because If I don't uncheck the box I seem to get them on almost all of my new hires, just from having  a good rep with them... doesn't seem like joining the faction would actually be much different.

Additionally I've seen Mutants in arenas "hold fire" on players.  They announce something like "Holding fire, friend!" when a player crosses their front arc.

That's very cool.  Wonder if that works for other factions as well.  I've never seen a Merchants faction gang hold fire on me.  But then again, Merchants are greedy bastards anyways.

As much as you participate in the in town deathsports, that's probably the most appropriate choice for you anyway.
