Ohh, my IQ is not enough to use it, again.

Ok, we (my living close relatives and me) are multiplicated several times in our "privíte tree". It is easy to see but its weakness based on the FS coding root…
Now we have a family group involved the living family members but none of us connected to each others as relatives.
What is the goal this new feature more than having one more ID? 🤐

Let me paste the part of the merging guidance: 🙃

• You cannot merge duplicates if one is in your private tree and the other is in a family group tree.
• You cannot merge duplicates if one is in your private tree and the other is in another user's private tree.
• You cannot merge duplicates if one is in your private tree and the other is in the public tree.
• You cannot merge duplicates if one is in a family group tree and the other is in the public tree.
• You cannot merge duplicates if they are in different family group trees.
