Indented results - Same page ranking twice; not seen as duplicate?

One of my competitors got blessed with indented listings as of today. However, the indented listing is exactly the same page as the 'main' listing! It's listed under a diferent URL ('/home') to be precise, but thats as far as the difference goes.

Is Google confused about duplicates?

Your competitor has a canonical issue, apparently. You would expect that Googe will catch it if the indented url gets served the exact same content - but not always, apparently. I wouldn't expect this to last - it's not what Google wants to serve their users.
