   > it is fundamentally overrated imo
   
   taking this repo as example I disagree with this phrasing. If you don't try 
to deduplicate you have to fix things multiple times. As someone who does 
project wide refactorings (e.g due to 
https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/8256) I might have more awareness to 
those issues than others e.g if I see the same piece of code 5 times in a diff 
- some of them with bug fixes. Or see the diff panel appear multiple times 
across NB with some having correct "diff to" ordering.
   
   As I said before: if there is no easy way to share this file, fine lets take 
the lesser evil. But copy and paste is not a overrated problem in my opinion. 
Whole modules (https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/7958) were copied and 
had to be deduplicated again with extra effort. JShell integration injects 
copied JDK code etc.
   
   I am ok with this PR but don't agree with the assessment.
