Can Dev’s comment on what the point of the inquisitors are?

So the best theory that I've seen has been that with Grand Inquisitor present, all leadership abilities of Inquisitors are active at once -- kinda/sorta like a DS Phoenix squad whose uniques become universal instead of individual.

When I first heard that theory, I had some thoughts about it on Discord. Please allow me to quote myself:

the GI has to be someone with super-strong uniques, rather than a super-strong lead UNLESS (as said above) he activates all leadership abilities at once. (That would be a nightmare to keep track of, but on the plus side it would mean that there's a long list of specific, quality teams who couldn't counter them.)

I'm more in favor of strong uniques, but not activating all leaderships at once so that you can make the squad powerful enough to completely overwhelm a near-meta team, which one being dependent on which leader you use. If you made all leaderships active you couldn't add similar strength bonuses or you would have a team that completely overwhelms many different near-meta squads, and I'm just wondering how that balances.

The idea from my perspective would be this: By having the GI in a non-leader role and having the other Inq's leadership still have a lot of power to shape how the team performs, but then giving it a ton of bonuses from GI you can make a squad that can go on offense against any one of 5 different near-meta squads and completely overwhelm them, but on defense they are easily bypassed b/c there's only one team you can't use against them (which one being dependent on which leader they have).

Having Inqs be ferocious on offense but terrible on defense would fit their role in the SW universe: They can be fearsome on attack of course, but when they're on the defensive you can also break into their home base, completely destroy it with one stray blasterbolt, then wander out of the complex no problem as long as you hide your 5-member squad under a raincoat.
