Actually... there are two GC leaders who do NOT have Plot Armor, and both already have people in place to take over for them. Kinda makes you wonder.
And it's actually a deeper issue, because with how quests work now, appearing in a sidequest means a character can never come to any harm at all.
I have a partial list I threw together for the hell of it, spoilers for almost everything. Read it only if you want to remove all tension from future MS developments.
The list:
Class and Job Quests:
Nanamo
Merlwyb
Raya-O
A-Ruhn
Hard/EX Mode Primals:
Urianger
Lady Iceheart
Crystal Tower:
Biggs
Wedge
Cid
Binding Coil:
Urianger
Alphinaud
Armor rescinded by sidequest (cannot appear elsewhere):
Alisaie
Nero
