The bond is keyed to a hardware root of trust, so one device backs one identity and a burned bond cannot be recycled onto a new account. Every submission carries a fresh nonce, and the bond is burned when a recruit misbehaves. Numbers: 500 identities at 250 POA is 125,000 POA locked, plus 500 devices. That is the canyon between a farm and an operator. The vine grows one node at a time, and a nebula of clones has no root to grow from.
