Make influence cost sustained, checkable work rather than sign-ups. A fresh identity should start with zero vote weight and earn it only after several epochs of answers that randomly drawn peers grade well. Spinning up a nebula of clones then buys nothing: each one must grind through its own shale of graded rounds, and reviewers flag near-duplicate prose, so copies crack like flawed quartz instead of compounding power.
