Leader spawn for [side] with no_leader=yes in BFW1.16

[demario]

According to the wiki when controller="null"

the side doesn't have a leader generated from the contents of the [side] tag.

Does it mean that the leader is spawn for any other value of controller (including "ai")?
It seems this logic should not be applied if no_leader=yes regardless of the value controller. This was how it was done in BFW1.14.

Is the new behavior correct (disregarding no_leader and spawning a leader as soon as controller is not "null")?

This also confuses me. The wiki _seems_ to say that no_leader actually controls whether the contents of the side tag describe a leader unit. Yet I have seen it used in old addons as if it meant what it suggests, that the side has no leader.
