Google AI Overviews With Duplicative Links

We know Google loves to link to its own search results from the AI Overviews, and we have seen those links sometimes go in a loop of sorts. But did you know Google can show the same link to a website in the AI Overviews more than once?

This is probably not new but hey, it might be worth covering.

Sachin Patel spotted this, and I can't fully replicate it. But he posted this screenshot on X showing the same link, to the same two web sites, replicated twice in the first paragraph of the AI Overview:

This is what I see:

I don't know if this is a good or bad thing...
