  • example precedent #1 says "Yes, it is perfectly acceptable to mark an older post as a duplicate of a newer one. The duplicate banner is a road sign for future readers; it should point to the best answer(s) available, be they under the older or newer version of the question."
  • example precedent #2 says "If a newer post covers a subject better, has more information and / or covers the subject in a more general scope, then it does not matter which post is the older one. We want to lead people to the best, highest quality information."
