And yet, they all remained quiet and only whispered among each other. Only Rainbow was vocal, and that was only because Applejack was glaring at her, and that was only because Rainbow accentuated the exact problem they were dealing with with. They could have left, but Trixie started singling them out.

That's funny, because rainbows are immaterial illusions, meaning even Rarity could do that. Also, it was Trixie who invoked the whole "Anything you can do, I can do better", which was after her ursa minor lie, which was after Rainbow confronted her, which was after Trixie started singling them out.

Maybe I'm sadistic, but honestly, I can't get over the ursa minor thing. If it was just the sucker-punching, then I would be fine with just Trixie becoming a laughing stock, but the ursa was a deal breaker.

That's a straw man argument (which is what anti-bronies often resort to). And lastly, if Trixie was just "doing her job", pray tell, why didn't she herself try to use that justification?
 * And Trixie kept on bragging. By that point, the only things she had done was conjure up the stage, teleport onto it, excessively exaggerate it with fireworks, and proclaim her name over half a dozen times.
 * Invoking the challenge was something she started. And even then, there was no reason to randomly go after the Mane Six.
 * Meaning she didn't follow up on a challenge that she invoked.
 * And yet, when they're backstage alone, Trixie doesn't tell Snips and Snails that it was a lie, even when they ask about it. Instead, she rudely sends them on their way.
