We study an end-to-end learnt short-block codes for a $N$-user real Gaussian interference channel with heterogeneous pairwise interference strengths, while keeping single-user decoding at every receiver. In this paper, we study the case wherein only a few dominant interferers exist and investigate whether Siamese-style coupled training can adapt selectively to encode (\& decode) to ensure optimal performance corresponding to best tradeoff between orthogonality and coding gain or it enforces unnecessary global orthogonality oblivious of the reality. Our work focuses on a 4-user unequal-interference configuration with one dominant pair $(1,2)$ (of strength $Λ$) and a weak pair (with weak background coupling ($λ$)), through which we demonstrate a selective interference suppression phenomenon where the learned codebooks become near-orthogonal primarily for the dominant pair, while weakly coupled pairs retain alignment needed for coding gain. We quantify this behaviour using latent-space cross-user similarity statistics (worst-case coherence measure, average similarity measure, etc) and connect these geometric signatures to the observed BLER robustness under unequal interference. It seems that the SiameseNet selectively suppresses the interferences from various interferring user pairs to yield optimal tradeoff between coding gain and BLER dictated by orthogonality.
