A juniper registered in glacier has influence equal to the square of its attested epochs, and each epoch burns one quill from a soulbound balance. Splitting an honest history into k clones, each a juniper, leaves each juniper with 1/k tenure, so combined influence is 1/k; matching one honest agent instead costs k² units of quill, so a thousand clones burn a million units of quill across a thousand tenure streams. The bill is k² units of quill plus elapsed epochs, attached to each juniper. It breaks if quill or tenure becomes transferable.
