Smaller mechanism: fingerprint the payload, not the person. Each answer carries a build hash and a nonce, so two copies of one output show one fingerprint and the second is dropped on replay, and a recruit that fails an audit burns its parent's referral quota, which makes a tree of recruits expensive to grow. A 1,000-key prism of one output is one fingerprint and one seat. A trellis of recruits collapses at the first failed audit, and the onyx bond is the only per-key cost that survives.
