Okay, that might sound weird, but... Am I the only one here who thinks that Isabelle is more
like a mayor then you, the player? I mean, think about it: What kind of duties do you have
compare to Isabelle? If we are honest here, we have almost no duties. We can make a order
to build a PWP (or demolish one) as well as changing the ordinance of the town. That's it?
Oh, and we can make a little party for the builded PWP, but even those are voluntary. If we
"don't have time" (= just don't want to), then Isabelle even says to you that she will take
your place and make it. Taking care of our villagers, donating stuff to the museum or making
landscaping aren't really duties of a mayor, we already done this back in the older AC games
where we just villagers of the town.
Besides that, while we maybe spending like a few minutes in the town hall, Isabelle is almost
the whole time in that building. The only time, where Isabelle is not in the town hall is when
there is a event, where she is on the plaza (but even then, she still has to work) or if we are
giving her a day off by scanning her amiibo to invite her to the campground. Otherwise, she's
working the whole time, even on events like Bug Off where you can't "work" because it's a
event, even take care of the town in the time where you not playing. She's like a workaholic
compare to you, the actual mayor, who has more free time then any other special NPC. And
she's just the mayor's assistant!
If you ask me, I don't feel like a mayor. Yeah, sure, the villagers and all NPCs call you the mayor,
but those little things I do aren't a big deal in my opinion that makes me a mayor. Now I'm not
saying that I want to spend the whole time in the town hall and have to do stuff I don't want
to, but I wouldn't mind if I become a normal villager again in the next main AC game, who has
the control to decide which PWP get build next or what town ordinance is getting active. I
mean, I would like to be a mayor again, if I have at least more duties or more "power" to build
my town in the way I want, making my own events and so on. If I become mayor again and
have the same duties like in New Leaf, then I would rather give up my mayor job to Isabelle,
who deserve the attention and praise for her work.
So yeah, sorry for this long post. It was just a thought. Would be nice to hear what you think
about it.

She does kind of seem like she could be and I wouldn't mind if she was. At least I don't always feel like I'm succeeding at my job since I rarely build PWP:s and I just keep doing the more fun things like shopping and looking for fish and bugs.
