Description
I think I have a misunderstanding about how Renko chart is constructed.
My question is
Looking at renko_bricks and renko_dates obtained by using return_calculated_values, Isn't it supposed to have a one-to-one relationship between renko_bricks and renko_dates? On a specific day, we might have one brick or not based on brick calculation which is I know. But there are duplicate renko_dates.
Can someone explain that?

Research direction
Reproduce the question using a Renko chart and inspect the values returned by renko_bricks, renko_dates, and return_calculated_values. First determine whether duplicate dates are expected behavior, then identify the relevant documentation or explanation needed so the relationship between bricks and dates is clear.
