It is absurd to think that the thing that Shearer leads includes Hone, Peters, and the Greens, none of whom had any chance to vote for him.
Under MMP they can form alliances, though - and not necessarily led by the same party as FPP always was. That should have some impact on usage now, no matter how long-standing it may have been.

I'm not convinced that it's one party, but rather all of them that are not in government. The 'leader' role as Rich says is different in current statute.
