Byteball is NOT a Bitcoin fork, it doesn't matter if somebody knocked on witness's door and asked them politely but "convincingly" not to confirm transactions on a certain branch of the DAG.

Like, how can this be explained, so it would be understanded and not brought up again. It goes against the rules of the code that witnesses are running that you could censor or not include some transactions. If you do that, everybody will know and you get replaced. All witnesses have to be asked politely but "convincingly" in order to pull it off, but then it would be still visible that it was done.

What you are bringing up again is a feature of Bitcoin that you can pick transactions that go to a block. Not such thing in Byteball. No blocks, it's DAG. Doesn't matter who you are or how much you payed transaction fee, your transaction will be confirmed and final. No rewrites of history. Only exception is double-spending (these will not be confirmed), that is what witnesses are looking out for, so it would not happen.
