Benjamin Peterson added the comment:

An error is out of the question for compatibility reasons. I think the idea for 
a warning should be brought up on the python-ideas list. Silently rejecting 
duplicates has a lot of precedent, though. For example, set literals and the 
dict constructor:

>>> dict((("dfs", 2), ("dfs", 3)))
{'dfs' : 3}
