Whats actually counting in the Reviewed Names?

I just completed 100 names in the new Review Name opportunity but to me it doesnt seem like 100 names because I couldnt have checked off fields for more than 20 unique individuals. Most names were just the same person in multiple places in the document.

What exactly is going on with that? Does this have a purpose?

    Yes though each 'match opportunity' may be a duplicate (same exact instance in a document or the same name but different location in document) - the Review Names app is using that response to help the AI auto-indexer 'learn' from those human responses (hopefully improving the AI indexer recognition). It is a bit bothersome to only get one 'name' to review but that is the process (it does have a purpose).
