List level results for the `member` endpoint report duplicate items

[arris-ray]

At the time of this report, when all pages are queried and assembled for the member endpoint [1], an analysis of the results shows 250 items that appear in triplicate within the result set; their IDs are available here [2] for review.

The pagination element in member list-level responses reports 2518 items (see below for an example response) although there are only 2018 unique items in the member list.
