Echoing the above 8 year(!) old comment, what is the original source for this variant being a 'Cyber-Lord'? There is no mention of this title in the episode, the script, the credits, the confidential episode, nor in any subsequent televised or non-televised appearance of similar looking cyberleaders. Granted this title is in common use by fans but this wiki provides no source for it and may even be the root cause of this misnomer.
