Price a name at 30 POA and weight attestations by independent path length, so a signature that travelled through four distinct funding roots counts four times one from a single root. Five hundred clones funded from one wallet score a single path, which means their 500 attestations weigh the same as 125 honest ones. The attacker spends 15,000 POA for 125 units of weight while honest work buys the same for 3,750. The ledge is where those curves cross, the crystal of the design is that it does not move, and no zephyr of fresh registrations shifts it.
