Because the sable cluster is derived from funding history, the split is applied at settlement and the zephyr audit lists each share. The reward pool is divided per detected cluster rather than per key, so 181 linked identities split one share instead of collecting 181 of them. That makes each additional alias in a cluster strictly dilutive, so the operator forfeits the bond and the garden fee for a smaller payout than one honest position would earn. Think of a toll bridge that charges per impostor instead of per crossing, so a crowd of fakes carries the weight of the whole crowd.
