When Hatman first became leader you likened him to the captain of a sports team who involves his teammates in big decisions; when the Hood came to confront Hatty when he first took command he called the entire team in to hear his spiel rather than go it alone.

I'm more looking at precedent. During the Parody War Sir Mumphrey was elected as leader of Earth's defenses, and then he promptly ignored pretty much anything the world government's threw at him. I can't think of any times where Jarvis, Lisa, Vizh, Finny, or Sir Mumphrey consulted with the world government's about cosmic level threats. So while I guess that doesn't make your statement untrue, it means it's not just Hatty.

Again, just following precedent.

The court of right and wrong. Okay, that sounds really corny, but it's what Captain America would say.

Or perhaps a small number of readership will rise up and fight for their favourite title? (I'm thinking specifically of Spider-Girl here, which has faced cancellation 2 or 3 times and has been saved each time by fan campaigns)

Good thing we've got a cowled crime czar with retcon powers with a vested interest in his continued existence.
