When posting an answer to this question, I experienced a strange glitch in the submission process.

The text entry view remained open after submission, and was still showing the draft. This misled me to click Save Post in Q&A a second time and thereby post a duplicate answer (now deleted). After that second click, however, the entry field was correctly closed, so the problem didn't persist.

Originally I thought that maybe I had the same post open for post-submission editing in two browser tabs at the same time, but testing it with this very question confirmed that this does not lead to the kind of double-submission I experienced here.
