It is? why? The difference between these two commands is that
duplicate-dwim is sensitive to the active region, but in that case how
is it useful to talk about lines, given that region could be a part of
a line or several lines plus a part of the first and the last one?
So it sounds to me that we could easily leave duplicate-dwim as it is
now, i.e. disregard this option in that command.
Why isn't that "good enough" for Emacs 29?
