As far as I know, WabiSabi doesn't have fidelity bonds.  How does it defend against Sybil attacks?

There isn't a need for fidelity bonds with WabiSabi because no one is paying for anyone else's block space.

In a regular coinjoin, the coordinator must be relied upon not to orchestrate a Sybil attack.

I don't know what you mean by "a regular coinjoin". The coordinator is not "relied on not to orchestrate a Sybil attack", any non-coordinator entity can be a Sybil attacker:

I reviewed your research paper, and it doesn't explicitly address Sybil attack protection; it only briefly mentions it in section 7.2.2.
