And? There we can see that the witness only afraid about they own stakes and livestyle. He can fork it anyway or swap it. The Witness can still runn the old Steemit version endless and be happy, nevermind they will have no future....

witness only afraid about they own stakes and livestyle

As they should be. Someone openly admitted that hes intending to put them out of their job and replace them.
They would be crazy if they werent afraid.

He can fork it anyway or swap it.

Anyone can do that. You or me can fork it. The important thing is that witnesses didnt fork STEEM because that would create a new chain that wouldnt keep the exchanges on their side.
Soft Fork didnt affect the listings.
If Justin forks the chain he would have to list his trc10 "FakeSteem" token and look for exchanges.
Thats why this move is briliant.
