Password category and duplicate entries

Hi: In the 1Password manual the Passwords category is described as a "safety net". That seems like a good idea. But when those Password category entries show up in the Duplicate Passwords section, it almost seems like they are something undesirable that should be removed. Is this a kind of mixed message?

    Hi @michaelmatthews,

    We try not to make any assumptions and exclude information like this, they are two separate items with the same password. However, the good news is that we have a tool to clean up the redundant generated password items. Open the main 1Password app and go to the Tools Menu > Advanced > Remove Redundant Generated Passwords.
