People only have one proof of human credential to rent out so you have to convince many individual people to rent theirs to continue to spam/attack.

In other words, the marginal cost of acquiring an ID and performing an attack is much higher when (1) only humans can get an ID [personhood] and (2) humans can only get one [uniqueness]. There are fewer IDs in the market and require more coordination to obtain.
