Why do you guys think Anya wasn't the leader of the Woods clan?

About her being a leader of stg before she become commander, I think it depends on how young she was, when they knew she "had the Commander's spirit". Like, if she was chosen as kid, she could have been Anya's second as a part of her training, and then when she reached "adulthood" (we saw that is like 13-14 at Grounders), she could have been called to Lead her people, never becoming the leader of the woods clan, since we don't know if Anya was the leader of that or not at all.

OR if it works differently, and she was just a random second when the previous commander died, maybe for example in some sort of civil war or stg, then she could have been simply made Commander at the age of 15, there was still civil war, Ice Quuen killed Costia, and then she united them despite that.
