A question about "duplicate formula" detection

When Daz Studio complains about having come across duplicate formulas, exactly what is it comparing to decide that it's found such?
- Two modifiers (http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/dson_spec/object_definitions/modifier/start) with the same ID?
- Two formulas (http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/dson_spec/object_definitions/formula/start) that have the same "output" and an identical list of operations (http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/dson_spec/object_definitions/operation/start)?
- Something else?
I'm still trying to purge a situation where I'm getting a warning about this, but where the log only refers to the DUF file that's being loaded. The DUF file does have modifiers and formulas in it, but I don't know how to sort out whether those are what are causing the conflicts, and if so, with what, or if the conflict is in some related custom content and just being triggered by this DUF file.

It's found two links between PropertyName1 and PropertyName2 - which may be links between the same properties 9for example, from running ERC Freeze twice) or may be links involving two different properties (1 or 2) that have the same name by accident.
it doesn't seem to make any difference... but it does create a dialogue button to dismiss..
Would be nice to be able to tell Daz .. "don't show me this message again"

On the other hand.. the missing file list needs to be put in a standing window .. so you don't have to dismiss it to go on...
couple times I just had to copy the list and paste it in word pad so I could reference the data.
