I'm thinking it depends on what kind of entities you are comparing, if
you are using some comparison function to determine what the multiple
minima are, isn't it possible to have multiple minima which are
different objects one might want to see as multiple values, and not
something that can be duplicated from a single copy?

Sure, you could optimize for numbers, but that'd make it less flexible
too?
