Of course, if you look a bit more closely, I was referring to the distinction between the "Marja'iyya" (religious authority) and the "Leadership," rather than the "Leadership" and the "Guardianship of the Islamic Jurist"

According to Article 57 of the Amendment to the Constitution, the Leadership is the Absolute Guardianship of the Jurist (Wilayat al-Mutlaqa al-Faqih); unless, in the new sphere of the Islamic Republic, they intend to officially declare that the third Leader is simultaneously a Marja' al-Taqlid (Source of Emulation) as well.

This was something that was not officially done for Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, at least until 1994
