If there is a duplicate declaration of a constant, one could check

That would mean to go back to ancient times where things were not
authentic, and the system generally not very well-defined. We've left
this behind a long time ago.
I did not look through the list of issues in detail yet (I will do that
later), but it is probably just a recurrence of what we knew already when
the generic interpretation mechanism was made formal and "size" became its
main application -- based on older less formal mechanisms.
