Consider starting with some analogue signal.  Now sample it at 96kHz;
that gives you some sequence of bits.  Now keep the 1st bit, the 3rd,
5th, etc.  The new sequence is exactly the one you would have obtained
had you simply sampled the original signal at 48kHz (starting at the
same time).  So where has downsampling introduced any artifacts?

In contrast a non-integer downsampling ratio is not like that -
throwing away bits will never give you the same sequence you would have
obtained by sampling the original signal at a different rate.

Am I missing something here?
