Leader abilities when lead dies

Today I realized that after killing Phasma, the toons were assisting each other, even though the leader was dead. Leader abilities should not be removed after this ?

You are correct, the leader abilities are maintained after death. Hence attacking phasma to remove assists is not so terribly helpful. They may eventually fix this...

I hope that this will be fixed, it is silly that a dead person can still lead a squad.

Leader abilities are intended to persist beyond the leader's death (otherwise leaders would simply be the first target you focus down).

But... There are a few leader abilities that stop functioning after death (the 2 most recently introduced) and there were some in the past that stopped working after death which were fixed (i.e. Luminara).
