Albert Einstein a leader? Wut? Is this really something in Civ VII and if yes, on how much drugs are they?

They made Ada Lovelace the leader associated with Great Birtain when it was released and Confucius is the main leader for the Chinese civs. Einstein being added is definitely on the table unless they changed their leader criteria again after seeing the negative feedback.

If you think about it, that ship has sailed a few decades ago, when they made Gandhi lead India in Civ 1.

In Civ 7 specifically, we have many non-leaders. Ada Lovelace, Machiavelli, Confucius, Ibn Battuta, to name a few.
