Because the entropy is measured at the walnut gate and the threshold is fixed for the epoch, the spiral audit keeps each rejection and the cutoff cannot be gamed by padding. Answers are scored for lexical entropy and anything under 4 bits per word is rejected before grading, as it signals generated filler rather than reasoning. A farm emitting 149 variations of one paragraph therefore pays for the volume and collects nothing, since the low-entropy text never reaches the wander panel.
