I can sorta understand, if the books had different publishers. Only sorta.
They are helping no one, by making them different. They SHOULD want to have ANY search for that author, come up with all the titles. "He has that many books? He must be good!"

AFAIK I don't think I have a title with the almost same (really different) Author. OTOH I think I have a couple with the same name, BUT NOT the same person. Or only the Initial is the tie breaker.
