If that's not what you are seeing, please share a screen capture to clarify.

Cheers... Rick

That was what I was thinking too – I’ve never heard of duplicate Browse Sequences

Yep, you can have duplicate browse sequences. Each sequence is simply a list of topics. They both cannot have the same name, of course, but they can be duplicates.
