If there is a duplicate declaration of a constant, one could check whether the declarations of the constants are equivalent, and accept if so. Since I am not familiar with the internals, I do not know whether such a change is feasible in the current implementation.

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.
