To finish off this discussion, I double-checked my collection last
night, added Discnumber=1/1 to my Closer albums and rescanned. Both
appear separately in the album list with a recent 7.0.1 build, so it
does appear as if this bug is now fixed.

There's no upper limit in SC. Limiting your music is a concept you know

Probably. But if it's a bug, then it very likely has already been fixed in

You may be able to resolve the issue without upgrading by removing the
DISCNUMBER tag entirely from the files. DISCNUMBER=1/1 or similar
appeared to be a significant cause of this
A quick review of the earlier thread suggests this problem is limited to
DISCNUMBER=1/1, because it makes SC think that there is only one album
with this name. People agreed that logic needed to be dealt with so
that the different ARTIST or ALBUMARTIST values were given priority.
