The reason for the duplicate is I have a work trip to CCC, but I don't want to lose the reservation to BBB because the work trip has some risk of cancellation and I need a way back home after thanksgiving when flight prices will be significantly higher than what I already paid
The algorithm has flagged things much less egregious than that.
