Very simply. They don’t allow coins with that lineage. There are so many people ignorant of the reality of bitcoins fungibility problem it amazes me.

If sent such tainted bitcoins, do the exchanges send them back, or seize them?

Coinbase won't let you sell tainted coins but will let you withdraw them. No exchange will seize them.

This is not an issue with bitcoin, but of exchanges. That's why I specifically asked if exchanges cared if taintedness was transitive.
