Hi,
Can these 2 parts be merged? If not, can a note be added that explains the difference?
End of a long day of sorting, maybe I'm just glazing over the difference?

They look the same to me and Brickset lists the same torso in all three sets
that these came in: https://brickset.com/sets/containing-part-6349575

Yes. They are the exact same torso and even have the same PCC added to each of
them. Unfortunately, we don't always catch duplicates as they are submitted
for entry to the catalog. In fact, it gets harder and harder every year to make
sure that we are not entering duplicate parts into the catalog, especially when
it comes to minifigure and mini doll parts.

Cheers,
Randy

I know LEGO reuses PCCs but, even with false positive, wouldn’t an autotmatic
flag “this PCC already matches this other part” help?

We rely on submitters to be checking for that, but it is up to us in the end
to try and keep duplicates out.

Oh, good.  It never happened to me… but then I’ve too few occasions to submit
anything.

I think it was, unless I'm remembering the picture credit.
