The methodology of the BUPCRS Algorithm does allows the chance that two borefields with the same NBH can be generated (after boreholes are removed). Previous adjustments to the 1D Bisection search algorithm seem to ensure that the field with the lower excess temperature between two fields with the same NBH is selected. This issue could be addressed by simply removing all but one of the borefields with the same NBH, but this would not guarantee that the "best" field between them is kept. Since the current 1D Bisection search algorithm does currently seem to select the "correct" borefield correctly.
This issue is reproduced even with the current BUPCRS test cases.
