Some prefer not having to add it again, some prefer to have it removed.

In any case, lines are directly next to each other, so nobody should have a
problem with finding out that both are the same if it's kept.

Since there have been different opinions expressed by committers (e.g. I
prefer to keep it), we would technically need a vote on this.
However, I think this is definitely way too unimportant to vote on it. So
I'd just leave it to the submitters' and committers' taste.

Best

Adrian
