I didn't mean the bash history file but the mcfly internal one.

mcfly doesn't remove dups and also stores additional info about the executed commands like pwd, timestamp and return code.

Now I'm wondering if I overuse / abuse my CLI. I don't find this to be a surprising number of deduped entries in the least.
