Charitable interpretation 1: non-tech org with systems that integrate poorly, which they work around by shuffling around data dumps/Excel sheets periodically. This means that customers (who may have initially consented but unsubscribed later) could end up being dumped into whatever mailing list software repeatedly.
Charitable interpretation 2: list of consenting subscribers from a one-time campaign, but due to human error, someone ends up importing the same list again 3 months down the line.
