Description

### Expected

Duplicate Tags should not be showed in Tags list.
OR
One of Duplicate Tags can be deleted.

### Observed

One of Duplicate Tags can not be deleted. I have two "debug" tag. For the first one, "Delete Tag" button is useless, the second one can be deleted.
The behavior of tags modification is strange, as the gif shows,

Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing duplicate-tag editing and deletion on Windows 10 with app version 2.21.0, then inspect the tag list and sync behavior; done means duplicate tags no longer persist or the affected duplicate can be deleted.
