So the utilization of witnesses to choose a main chain would make this a delegated tangle or DDAG.
So...  you do not read even tonich's answers?  Thank you for your valuable opinion.
Witnesses do not decide ordering of units.  Ordering is determined by the algorithm that looks back at the witnesses-authored units in the DAG.

If an algorithm determines the canonical chain by looking at witness authored units then witnesses are still delegates. Adding an algorithm doesn't change that. It's not FUD. I'm just trying to figure out how to classify byteball and DDAG seems to be accurate.
