Rejecting blocks that mint full amount is actually a less bad 51% attack though than simply rejecting all blocks you didn't mine yourself, though in practice it probably ends up being the same thing since it is not likely anyone else will be mining less than the full amount.
So really I still don't see how it is in any way new or interesting, it is maybe just an example of a simple way of implementing in your code a method of rejecting blocks you didn't mine yourself.

Difference here is that:
a) it really simple to implement (and fix) (oh well ok, its not hard to code client that just doesnt accept blocks from network either)
b) this creates thousands of mini reorganizes instead of one huge, so its harder to detect (its not hard to code client to refuse to reorganize more than amount of confirmations needed for "valid" transactions, thus preventing double spend until checkpoints are fixed etc...)
