Seems like an impossible task. There's just not enough signal to noise ratio to make that distinction. Not if the goal is to distinguish among thousands of people.

Among tens or hundreds, might work if they don't take any countermeasures.

Even if it doesn't exactly work, like with facial recognition fucking up for non-white skin colors, they will use it anyway and real people will be saddled with real adverse consequences.

Im not smart enough to know if this is the same thing as what you're saying, but it just doesnt seem like there are millions of writing styles. There might just be too many literary doppelgangers.
