See puzzle #11376

Of all the puzzles that I have mentioned when listing similar puzzles this one wins by far and is definitely appropriate for similarity!

Why post the exact same puzzle twice???

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by blurglecruncheon.

Are there rules about deleting unintentionally duplicated puzzles? I enjoyed this, but just wondering about general housecleaning rules. In the other thread (#11376) the author mentions they just pushed publish twice by mistake (probably interenet connection lag.)

It's been 12 years and nothing's blown up, so it's not a huge deal. But I was curious!

Hm. No particular opinion here. Since the puzzle is counted in solvers' statistics and has people's comments on it, I'm inclined to leave it, but happy to go either way on this.
