Actually, I don't think it's a bug; the tooltip is just a little confusing. The "Righteous" trait's tooltip says it "increases Leadership by 1," which it in fact does - i.e. you get a free ability level in Leadership. But for "Obedient," the tooltip only says it "gives an extra bonus from Leadership," which I interpret as making the existing ability stronger, rather than adding actual points to the ability.
But as LordCrash said, maybe we should move this discussion over to the other thread (LC, you should probably rename that one to "1.0.59" from "1.0.56" - there was just a hotfix). Otherwise we'll have a hundred different bug threads in no time.
