RE: Theory: How to side-step soft-consensus

Yes that would be a major improvement. So you think it might be possible that if a libre witness is randomly assigned to spot 21 of 21, they could create a block that makes the below-20 witness mine first in the subsequent block?

Is there any protection to the other top 20 witnesses pretending the libre witness was offline and discarding those blocks?

I believe they are already "protected" otherwise that would cause a fork.
