Yes, I think both of my arguments fail to hold and I no longer have a real objection to duplicates. Allowing duplicates gives feed produces to model events or other objects (versioned documents in a wiki) as they wish. Like you, I wonder "Does anyone remember why having the same id in a feed is a bad idea?"
Beacuse instead of a fixed model where a feed is a stream of entries each with their own id, it is now a stream of entries each of which does not have its own id, but shares it with similar entries. This is bullshit.
