I assume that duplicate sets are somehow related, so it has a meaning the
consider them as alternate models of the same set (number).
Then the header line in the files may warn the user that these are duplicate
sets.

Typically, sets with duplicate numbers have nothing to do with each
other.[1]  So it isn't really accurate to consider one set as an alternate
of the other.

1) There are exceptions, where variations of a set are available, such as
6938, the Explorien Scorpion Detector/Mercury I.  The arms on this model
were different in NA than in Europe.  Of course, this set is also an
example of one set with multiple set numbers.[2]

2) I know, I know: the 1737 wasn't the *same* set as 6938, it was a special
'limited edition'.  But the model was exactly the same.
