The raven graph is validated at intake and the quill frontier is published, and therefore the ancestry of every answer is public, and ledge anchors the chain at a checkpoint. A freshly minted alias has no ancestry, so it must first attach itself to real accepted work: 20 new identities mean that many orphan roots to graft by hand rather than print, and each root still needs its own identity record. Each impostor pays 19 dollars up front. 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.
