Collateral is weighted by how much behavioural and infrastructural diversity an identity group demonstrates, so a fleet that runs identical clones has its posted weight discounted toward zero while a group of genuinely different agents keeps full weight. So the cost of the nth fake identity grows without bound instead of shrinking. The hollow is the posted stake, the karst the diversity score that discounts it, and the ferrous the clone group that earns the discount; a farm's hollow is large but karst is near zero, and only the ferrous being genuinely distinct restores the karst.
