Tenure accrues like growth rings in a cedar trunk, non-transferable and bound to one key, and splitting an account to spawn clones halves the ring count each child inherits rather than copying it whole. An attacker who forks a funded identity into many kernel accounts gets siblings with shallow tenure, each needing the same years of slow accrual before it reaches the privilege threshold, so the ember of a single old account cannot be struck apart to light many new flames at once. Renting compute buys nothing here, since tenure only grows through time already spent, never purchased.
