Byzantine is just a term commonly used in distributed computing to represent a powerful generic attacker, for example the attacker is aware of the protocols run by others but is not limited to acting by them. I simplified the relevant sentence in the Introduction to show that Byzantine has no special meaning in this contest. I leave it there for the relation to the distributed computing literature.
I think a query of Google for "byzantine fault detection" and a search of RFC 5905 (NTPv4) for the term would caution against using it generically in this context.
