Hashing resources is like an intern problem, technically at least. Facebook must have some crazy politics to incur the image dedupe problem.
As far as objective c binaries go, all I can think of are static variables for coroutines, but I'm probably forgetting something. Java doesn't dedupe, but it's not that hard. C has to worry about flag state, so I kind of understand why they don't dedupe binaries.
I'm sure someone would get fired if one subsystem showed the wrong image, but I'd agree it's likely no one person has that in their job description.
Otoh, it's only a couple hundred wasted terabytes, and FB doesn't pay for them, so who cares?
