More info when adding duplicates

When you add a new book and you get a warning that there is already a similar title it would be useful to have more info such size, publisher, year you added those already in.
Some times is the same book but others is a different edition maybe with a different translation...

What a coincidence. I agree with this opinion too.

The warning is not for an similar title, it is for an identical title. Personally, if I think it is a false positive, I add the book and then use Find Duplicates to locate books with identical titles disregarding the author(s).

This is a reason to use an 'Intake' Library.
Then use Find Duplicates: Find Library Duplicated (compares 2 Libraries)
The view and resolve before Copy to Library
(preference: Adding books: Adding actions has a setting for C T L dups)
