Description
Jens removed a signature, because it is invalid (I'll file a separate issue about that): https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1435343#c90
Then right after, bugbug added the same signature right back. It would be better if it didn't just flip the signatures right back after somebody changed them.

Research direction
Locate the script that copies information from duplicate bugs to the bugs they were duplicated to, then inspect how it handles signatures and existing Bugzilla values. Done means a signature manually removed as invalid is not automatically restored by the copy operation.
