1. It would be great to reopen the issue and continue the discussion, to highlight it.

2.
> One thing I find interesting is that StreetComplete, for some reason, manages to create almost 120 times fewer duplicate notes compared to Organic Maps

StreetComplete uploads edits while users are in the app. OM and MM are uploading edits when the app has moved to the background for a number of reasons. It was a good working solution when we introduced it in 2015, but modern OSes are actively killing/limiting background apps, e.g. https://dontkillmyapp.com/

3. We will continue working on fixing/workarounding the client side in any case.

4. Moving to an idempotent OSM API (at least in some cases) would benefit everyone in any case, and may also speed up the database, right?
