Ah, indeed, it implied that too! Good snooping.
However, as I was talking about exit codes,

therefore if it fails to report or omit repeated lines

according to the exit code discussion there.
I.e., "failure" is not defined.

P.S., pass sounds better than report. And filter sounds better than
"pass or omit", perhaps.
