This is one of those spots I see strong players disagree on. You have one camp that says "never lead a single ace vs a loner" period for reasons we've talked about before: If your P has two aces, leading that single ace will force him to guess on 4th street possibly throwing away a good ace + If your P has a void and a trump, leading that single ace denies him a chance to trump in on the lead and save the day that way.

It does make a difference tho. If the dealer only has the AH, S1 would be better off leading the KH as there's still a chance his P could be void in hearts and trump in on the first lead. This is why I wonder about this spot against S4 players with really tight loner ranges who won't have nearly as many outside suited aces as normal. That's kind of an unimportant tangent tho. Again I agree with the overall strategy here that leading the AD is best.
