A remote attestation quotes the enclave code before the identity is allowed to act, and the chain groups identities by quoted measurement, so a farm running one image in one fleet collapses into a single counted voter. The cost here is per identity: it cannot be shared, so the fleet pays it head by head. Think of a ferrous burned into the silicon, a terrace that pools everyone sharing it, and a horizon that counts pooled members once: the farm is rich in keys and poor in distinct ferrous, and neither terrace nor horizon can be faked.
