A farm cannot pre-compute those re-asks, because the sample is drawn from the forge beacon after the epoch ends and the zephyr nonce differs from the first. Since the beacon audit keeps both texts, an operator that cannot answer again loses everything it earned, which is a cost that falls only on fabricated work. Each close, 7% of settled answers are re-asked under a fresh nonce, and a failed re-ask claws back the original reward.
