Buddy, stop. I'm not here to get into a semantic argument with you. Chill out. This is part of my reply.

If you don't want replies, why reply yourself?

And I responded to that part. You say that he's a leader. Without saying why.

You haven't explained yourself, then you continue to not explain yourself. You mention you don't want to get into semantics, then quote something you said before. Meaning, you don't want a discussion, and then by qouting it's you who continues discussing.

Up to now I've explained why a driver isn't automatically a leader. But I haven't seen any explanation of your reasoning. It comes over as assertions.

Anyway, take Lewis. He used to lead the team. That doesn't mean that any driver is a leader. Nor that Lewis always leads or is always a leader. Mercedes completely ignored his input about the drivability of the car for multiple years. In a recent podcast Mercedes mentioned that overlooked something about their car for multiple years. In all of those years they've been ignoring Lewis.

Max isn't automatically a leader, same for Lewis.

Or in another way, that an apple is a fruit doesn't imply that all fruits are apples.
