IEWB Vol2 Lab 8 - Task 4.3

How come after R3 peers with R2 and R1, R3 is able to learn prefixes from both
the peers, after a while, it reduces to just only from one peer? The prefixes
learnt shows everything are the same in terms of metrics, local preferences,
weight and path.

Does it means, when the same prefix is learnt from 2 different peers, which
are of the same equal values, only one can exist?
