This, it seems to me, is the only plausible authority for Sunday becoming the Christian day of rest and worship. I

We are in agreement. That is the only rational reason for man to accept Sunday as the day of rest and worship. They have submitted to Rome.

They certainly have not submitted to God.

Is is not just all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints. It was all the churches. The change occurred early (by end of First Century: see Didache, Letter of Barnabas, Ignatius of Antioch) and became predominant, eventually being ruled in the Council of Laodicea.

Historically, sabbatariansim is a relatively modern restorationist movement, except for Ethiopian Orthodox who began worshipping for two days (Saturday and Sunday) in the Twelth Century.
