Chances are, Liam would've been promoted, regardless. As I've already said, he's Scott's beta. His spot on the show is a done deal, I'm certain Hayden will be promoted as well. You're basing your statement of Liam being a Derek replacement on him being promoted after Derek left. That's like saying Malia or Kira was Isaac's replacement after he left bc they both were promoted in S4 after his departure.
