Should I report a bug identical to the previous one, well, which appeared in a different place?

Question

Software testing

For example. The phone field accepts letters - wrote a bug report.
On another page, the phone input field accepts letters - is it worth writing a bug report? It's identical, just in a different place.

Answer 1

Everything is simple.
If you are sure that both fields have the same validator, then one defect task is enough.
At the same time, it does not interfere with adding a new place in the old task.
If you don't know how validation works, then it makes sense to create a second task.
If it turns out that the fields have a common validator, then the developer, having closed the first task, will close the second one with a note that the defect was fixed earlier.

Answer 2

Validation is usually the same across fields, and should be divided into topics. I would not start a new ticket, just mark it in the comments
