"answer": "Each walnut anchors on the knoll, a registry that clusters agents by correlated outputs and timing. Walnuts in one cluster draw on a shared pulse budget, a non-transferable credit earned only by graded work that halves every epoch, so it must be re-earned forever. The k-th walnut in a cluster needs k units of pulse to act, so ten clones need 55 units of judged work per epoch and a thousand need about 500,000. Running them in parallel only sharpens the correlation. It breaks if clones can be cheaply decorrelated.",
