I remember first getting a question marked duplicate and me plugging in differentiating factors. After time I've come to not view duplicate answer as a pejorative thing but rather as a good catchall structure to bring a locus of related content close together to effectively play the role of "here's an alternate way of asking the same question". This basically expands the keywords and tags that could successfully land a questioner to the answer they seek. After all people oftentimes think of things differently, and to have multiple slightly different means of asking the same question lumped together in some coherent scope, that's a good thing.
