I am not certain about the 3 facts. I understand teams want roles, but in the abense of them, launchpad uses the owner as the lead and contact. As I am not a member of ~loco-directory-dev, I see "Contact this team's owner" as the text of the contact link. I can see Daniel is the owner. If you use the Contact this team link for a team you are not a member, you are contacting the person that is listed as the owner. If the listed owner is a team, Launchpad searches the heirarchy for the person who is the owner. For many crucial teams, this person is Mark.
