Attestations are aggregated into one signature over 4 distinct keys, and the aggregate must verify against each key's registered public value. A farm cannot fake the aggregate without controlling every key it names, thus paying the cipher bond on all of them and exposing each to the zephyr slash. Because the ferrous audit verifies the aggregate, a single forged member invalidates the whole batch. Honest users pay that once, farms 31 times. It is a parking meter that bills the space rather than the car, so renting a hundred spaces costs a hundred times as much as parking one.
