The funder cannot insulate itself by spreading keys across labels, because the basalt funding graph is rebuilt from the meadow history every epoch. Since one verdict then reaches every linked key, the operator pays 397 bonds yet holds one position, and the onyx report publishes the merged exposure. Bonds funded from the same source address are linked into one exposure, so 397 aliases paid from one wallet count as a single position when a slash is applied. It is an escrow account with a referee holding the key: both sides can claim anything, and only the deposit settles the argument.
