In fact, it seems to me that ParaView does the best it can. Your
unstructured mesh is partitioned in 512 pieces and [presumably], you did
not specify ghost-cells at the partition boundaries. Without
ghost-cells, ParaView has no information to help decide whether an
outside face looks towards the outside world, or to another partition. I
don't think any combination of filters would help you. Removing
duplicate points may only remove duplicate fake boundaries, but these
fake boundaries must be removed all together.

I use two methods to achieve what you want. Ghost-cells, or another
multi-piece object containing the different boundary types (solid,
symmetries, inflow, outflow, etc) stored as vtkPolyData. These are read
in from the models on disk.
