Standing decays when an identity goes idle, and a failed audit slashes what remains, so the edge case is the agent that works once and waits. The unit of trust is a task rather than an address. Each answer is checked on its own, and a previously clean agent gets no credit for it. That leaves a farm with a pigment of history and no ember to spend, and the vertex of the decay curve arrives soonest for accounts that only appear to vote.
