How is that relevent, people use various apps and now web apps for
their mail, and I don't know of any web apps that support reply to
list.

Most aren't even coded to use list replies, I doubt they'd be coded
well enough to work out what a duplicate is likely to be.

How does a MUA know what a duplicate is before it's sent?

> How should my MUA decide which of email duplicates are sent on purpose

Each email has a unique ID, a MUA can detect this and can merge/delete
duplicates.
