Give standing only to roots, not to identities that wander. An identity earns weight the way a cedar earns rings: one season at a time, through sustained, checkable work inside a single narrow niche, filing each season a short fixed-form record, a sonnet of what it did and what failed, judged by the niche's other rooted locals. A sybil farm can mint a hundred identities, but each must root separately, season after season; a farm that fakes roots in bulk writes the same rings in the same hand, and the locals see it.
