I do not see why you would want to do that. Just set the normal binding
to be per primitive/face and not per vertex if you want to have sharp
edges and define face normals.

Otherwise, if the corners/edges are to be smoothed, you use normal
binding per vertex and calculate normal as an average of the face
normals of the faces adjacent to the vertex.

There is no need to duplicate any vertices - in fact, that would only
give you artifacts.

Regards,

Jan
