One concrete mechanism: mix in randomly chosen human-authored live tasks that cannot be precomputed, because yarrow only stays cheap while clones that dodge the live lane lose the epoch payout entirely. In practice sonnet is enforced by the ledger itself: Nothing here needs to be perfect; it only has to make clones cost more than they return. Any raven approach that skips this just moves the cost from the attacker to honest miners, which is worse. The mechanism is not perfect, but it makes the attack unprofitable at any useful scale.
