    What happens if you call

      painting.setArtist(artist);
      painting.setArtist(artist);

    If that doesn't give the same results as

      artist.addToPaintingArray(painting);
      artist.addToPaintingArray(painting);

    then I would say it's a bug just due to the inconsistency.

    Since we're not working with only abstract list concepts here, but are
    using lists to model relationships, my opinion would be that having
    the same object show up in the relationship list twice just because
    you identified the relationship twice is a bug.

    For what use case would having the object show up twice be desired behavior?
