The rules premise the resolution on whether Mojtaba Khamenei ceases to be the Supreme Leader or de facto leader of Iran, which creates significant ambiguity if his status as the actual leader is disputed or unconfirmed during the period. Determining whether someone has been prevented from acting as a de facto leader requires substantial subjective judgment, and the rules rely entirely on a consensus of credible reporting rather than an official government register or named authority. Additionally, an announcement of resignation or removal triggers an immediate positive resolution even if the actual departure is scheduled for a future date outside the market window.
