The bond is keyed to a hardware root, so one machine cannot back two identities without the second failing attestation. Duplicates are caught by replay, not by name, so renaming changes nothing. Auditors split across independent pools and each verdict needs three of five. Measured cost to clone one identity: one hardware root, one bond, three audits. A lotus on the surface and a walnut underneath; the gale of new labels moves none of it.
