I think the most fundamental difference that "balanced reduced to zero, is not even up for discussion in Bitcoin.

Some Orwellian newspeak right there. "Reduced to zero". Just call it what it is: blacklists.

Blacklists = permissioned access.

Behave or we blacklist your coins. Welcome to Fiat 2.0

Whatever. All Bitcoin users could also switch to a client that reduces someone's balance to zero.
