> Copying my content from the duplicate thread[1] here

Please don't do this! It makes merging threads a pain because then we have to find the duplicate subthreads (i.e. your two comments) and merge the replies as well.

Instead, if you or anyone will let us know at hn@ycombinator.com which threads need merging, we can do that. The solution is deduplication, not further duplication!

Oops. Noted!

Apologies for inadvertently adding work!

Somehow, I never realized that duplicate threads were merged (instead of one of them being nuked), because it seems like a lot of work in the first place.

Thanks for doing it!

Appreciated!
