I agree but unlike you I like Tommy as a character

In universe, the Red Powers were originally designed for the team leader. So it was natural for Wes to look like the leader in battle.
precisely

he wouldn't have been a good choice when he became a Ranger since he was a newbie and inexperienced.

Adam and Rocky were newbies so Tommy was a good choice. Billy isn't a leader

But Adam was a cool Ranger and a natural leader . It didn't matter if he was new. He would have been a great leader right off the bat.

Maybe he wasn't ready at the time. But he could have been a leader in Zeo. As we saw during the Alien Ranger Saga.

still a newbie and inexperienced. Being cool is irrelevant.

I think Tommy being the leader was the obvious choice in this case. Rocky never gave me the impression of being a leader, well not in MMPR, he was new to the team whereas Tommy, BIlly and Kimberly had experience.

To change things up in Zeo would of been a bit pointless, wouldn't really be good for Zordon to demote Tommy, Jason was only demoted as Austin St. John had left/was leaving.

Austin did 2 more episodes after White Light before he had left so technically during filming it would've been "was leaving" but by the time they got to the ADR he had already left.

Intersting information. I wonder after the filming/the doing of ADR of which episodes did Walter and Thuy leave, because I've read or heard somewhere that "Opposites Attract" was the final episode either the full trio or just a member of the trio was present at the filming of?

that was stated to be the last episode that the 3 of them had filmed together and of course the very next ep is when they mentioned about the Peace Conference

Rocky didn't really become interesting until Zeo. But I wouldn't call him a leader then either.

From i remember from watching various panels on YouTube is that the line was changed from "so Power Rangers i assume you are pleased with new member of the power team" to "so Power Rangers i assume you are pleased with new leader of the power team" in ADR because of Austin leaving.

I'm sure as negotiations were on-going that they had ADR plans for both outcomes of the contract talks.

Although i'm sure Austin said in one panel that he told them he was quitting but would stay on to film the episodes that re-introduced Tommy first.

Either way that whole run of episodes up till The Power Transfer had comical dubbing moments, i would of have assumed in some cases they'd have used old ADR for the morphed fight scenes at least.
