Comment:

 Thanks for the report @teraitane and welcome.

 Are you referring to `wp_schedule_single_event()`? `wp_schedule_event()`
 doesn't perform a duplicate check.

 The duplicate check inside `wp_schedule_single_event()` includes the args
 in the key that's used to store the list of events for a given hook, so
 the args are taken into account. You can verify this by scheduling two
 posts to be published within ten minutes of one another and then verifying
 that a cron event is scheduled for both. If the args weren't taken into
 account, this wouldn't work.

 Do you think the documentation needs clarifying?
