I just looked at the code (https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.posix/blob/master/plugins/modules/authorized_key.py). It does indeed remove duplicates. It puts all lines of authorized_keys into a dictionary, indexed by the actual key: https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.posix/blob/master/plugins/modules/authorized_key.py#L450-L461 The value in the dictionary contains more information so that the file can be rebuilt - except that duplicate keys won't survive. It's probably a good idea to mention that in the module docs. If someone wants to create a PR for that (it's a good start to trying PRs for collections!), feel free!
