Unfortunately, we don't always catch duplicates as they are submitted for entry to the catalog. In fact, it gets harder and harder every year to make sure that we are not entering duplicate parts into the catalog, especially when it comes to minifigure and mini doll parts. I know LEGO reuses PCCs but, even with false positive, wouldn’t an autotmatic flag “this PCC already matches this other part” help?
