Relevant for Spotify computer client - adding multiple songs to playlist with potential duplicates no longer triggers warning message “this song already is in this playlist, add anyways?”

this was a critical feature that helped keep playlists organized and avoid duplicates. For instance if you want to archive your “release radar” playlists, you can’t do that now without having loads of duplicate songs as the old warning message would “auto filter” duplicate entries out of the new songs, keeping everything neat and orderly. 

Strangely, the warning will pop up when adding single songs, but not “en masse”. Why!? No observable way to toggle this in settings either - I NEVER selected the “do not remind me again” option when this message has pppped up in the past - to put it simply, I RELY on it and would hate to see it needlessly be bypassed.
