In a TA request, when selecting researchers in the research group, if two researchers have the same name and you select one of them, the other one cannot be selected anymore to add. This is not very likely to happen but not impossible. Another issue, more likely it occur, is that you can only see the name so if two people from different institutions have the same name, you do not know if the one you selected is the right one. There is no way to find this out. This may cause a problem later when attribution to the TA results is given to the wrong person.
