It's funny that you can't tell ne how to triage bugs, but you do anyway.
No, it should not have been merged. Do not confuse "I would have done
such and such" with "this should have been done in such and such way".
Whenever somebody has problems with his MUA and submits two different
but identical bugs by error, I consider one of them as "not submitted"
and close it.
There is absolutely no reason to merge bugs when one of them is
submitted by error by the same person.
