So Zora is just a renegotiation of the contracted paradigm it rails against whilst not really changing anything?

Sloan does make the point though that changing anything in the object changes its nature and that new object can then be resold on. The Zora model doesn't really solve anything when you can change one bit of a digital object and have essentially the same object? Does it?

It's the same object, but by a different author. That can have some importance, if limited. A Van Gogh or a fancy hand bag not made by Van Gogh or the fancy hand bag maker might be valuable, but carries a flag that says this is not authentic.
