On the contrary, sorry for asking a question which was not actually needed.

All the four bugs had identical subjects, so it was obvious that they
were the "same".

Regarding the BTS: I already broke it myself :-) Apparently, the first
bug in a forcemerge determines the affects of all the others being
forcemerged, so most affects were cleared, but it was just a matter of
readding them. (This is why I sometimes do reassign + affects but skip
the forcemerge before it becomes messy).

Thanks a lot.
