The real limper may come to resent the label, and he may decide to cheat, at least once, so he can at least earn it.
Meanwhile the cheater limpers are coming up with cover stories. "I was in the first Gulf War... I was Agent Orange..." And so their noses get longer.
Now it's a triple tragedy for the real limpers with actual long noses.

lol @ long noses
We can just do the scarlet letter thing, brand style, then no confusion over limps.
Or if it has to be a physical manifestation the cheaters can swallow a pill that makes a huge blister form on the chest in the letter A.
