Your line of argument looks strange to me. Basically, you are saying that any writer MUST go through gatekeepers to reach his readers and if he bypasses the gatekeepers that's fraud and deceit upon the readers. I don't find this approach reasonable.

Choosing to self-publish your book with the intention of having your readers mistake it for a non-self-published book is deceptive.
