Activating Bites the Dust requires speaking to Hayato and using the trigger word of anything relating to Kira’s location. This means that Hermit Purple could use spirit photography and the like to find Kira without even knowing Hayato exists. When he finds kira... he STANDs no chance agains Killer Queen. But hey, this was about BTD and not KK so it still works. Wasn't the trigger for BtD any method of revealing Kira's identity? Like if someone were to find out about Kira wouldn't BtD just activate on it's own? Nope. That's how Josuke was able to confront Kira: he heard him say his name out loud and didn't blow up.

As for the question, King Crimson should be able to avoid BtD. And maybe D4C too, if Valentine can find the universe where he isn't affected by BtD and swaps.
