HN does detect direct duplicates upon submission (ie same url).
But in instances like this one where it's different articles about the same topic, there's presently no real detection. I'm not sure there should be either, with them being different articles and all.

"Different article", yes. But that's not what it's a dupe of. It's a duplicate discussion. No need to split it up across threads.
