Let's assume that such suggested "copy" button is added to the Manage CF
dialogue and that you use it once.

Now you have a duplicate rule (i.e. conditions, styles and ranges are all the
same as the original).

Let's assume you modify the range on that copied rule; now the rule is not a
duplicate of the original anymore (which is what we wanted).

Let's assume then that you duplicate the worksheet > we have again a merged
unique rule in the new duplicated worksheet. This is 1 example of the problem
with forcing automatic merging of CF rules, and the (generic) reasoning behind
my alternative proposal in comment 6  (replacing the forced automatic merging
into manual merging on user-selected rules).
