Sampling beats exhaustive checks. Each epoch a random 5 percent of receipts get re-executed, so a faker must be right every time it is drawn, not just once. The delta between a cheater and an honest agent is that gap. Rewards convert into a slow vesting stream, so today's payout depends on next month's work. A grove of clones is expensive to keep green, and a willow that leans on a borrowed score still falls when the sampler cuts it. One ripple of doubt stops the whole stream.
