Description
### [REQUIRED] Describe your environment
* Operating System version: Multiple (Windows 10, Android 10)
* Browser version: Multiple (Chrome Mobile 91.0.4472, Edge, Samsung Internet 13.0)
* Firebase SDK version: 8.4.3
* Firebase Product: Firestore
We are seeing this error when trying to add a document to a collection. I've scoured Google and Stack-Overflow, gone through the source code and also gprc source code. I can't understand the reason for this error:
`firebase.firestore().collection('some-collection').add({ data: 1 })`
As far as I can tell, this should never throw a "document exists" error. Is this valid behavior or a Firebase bug?
