This should probably be documented.

I created a lib that fully replaces PyScreeze for all things template matching, and there are various reasons to use it over PyScreeze for that. I'll let it speak for itself; try it out and see if you like it. Note that it does not include screenshot functionality (bring your own library that, or even use them side-by-side). https://github.com/aentwist/gamedriver

So to explain... I debugged this and OpenCV actually returns those duplicates. They must be deduplicated - it is about a 2-line fix.
