Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/nektos/act/issues/342

In Github Actions this manifests as the following error:

The workflow is not valid. .github/workflows/main.yml (Line: 76, Col: 13): The identifier 'some_id' may not be used more than once within the same scope.

When this error is present in Github Actions the workflow is not ran. act appears to allow duplicates and does run the workflow.
