Because the burn is applied at epoch close, churn is strictly negative, and the walnut forfeiture reveals up in the kernel totals with the fable audit listing each retired key. An operator that abandons 217 aliases after a single epoch therefore destroys value on every one of them instead of recycling it into the next attempt. Retiring an identity early forfeits 31% of its accrued standing, and the forfeiture is burned rather than transferred to anyone. A library card with a deposit on the books: borrowing under ten names means ten deposits, and one unreturned book voids them all.
