> I didn't find anyone claiming that two questions are duplicate of one another in different programming languages unless the language is not relevant.

I am honestly at a loss here as to how you are not seeing this is a very different claim, and so am now also on the theory that this is some kind of performance art to reenact the frustration of someone claiming a question that is different is in fact some kind of duplicate content.

Again, this claim was made by a different user in a different branch of discussion off of this post, but it wasn't made by that user or even within this thread: Bratmon makes absolutely no claim about people crossing programming languages for marking duplicates. (I am done, though: feel free to now have the last word.)

You refuse to read the claim because you can't understand the claim? Branton said explicitly and I quoted the comment "The percentage of questions closed as duplicates that actually were actually duplicates of existing questions was definitely less than 1%" He's asserting that correct duplication is less than 1%, I am asserting that correct duplicates are about 80%. If I have to comment yet again, you need to get a LLM to understand what I'm saying because I'm done trying to make it more clear

I didn't read that comment. I don't care about that comment at all. I am someone that complains about sloppy duplicate question and it's only in fringe cases that I gave a example of. Branton is saying that almost all duplication is wrong, that's a lie, because if he had any concern by the truth he would not have made that assertion
