pinned tabs opening twice

Reported by dar...@haloassociates.co.uk, Jun 19 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_4) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/63.0.3218.0 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. open Canary
2. Open 4 tabs and browse to 4 webpages
3. pin the 4 tabs (They are the 4 I want to always access)
4 Settings > Open a specific page or set of pages > set the 4 open tabs to open on startup
5 quit canary
6 open canary
7 now 8 tabs are opened. The 4 pinned and the same 4 as normal tabs

What is the expected behavior?
That the tabs I specify in settings should open again as pinned tabs. Canary should recognise that the tabs which are set to open have duplicates and not open a second tab for each url

What went wrong?
Each tab opened twice - one pinned, one normal

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 63.0.3218.0  Channel: n/a
OS Version: OS X 10.13.4
Flash Version: 

love your work! :)

darren@ Thanks for the issue.

Able to reproduce this issue on Windows 10, Ubuntu 17.10 and Mac OS 10.13.5 on the latest Stable 67.0.3396.87 and the latest Canary 69.0.3466.0 as per the original comment.
Attached is the screen cast for reference.

This is a Non-Regression issue as this behavior is observed from M-60 chrome builds.
Hence marking this as Untriaged for further updates from Dev.

Thanks..

This may be 'working as intended', as pinned tabs will ALWAYS open on browser's startup, no matter what pages is configured in settings. In the example above 4 pages are pinned and 4 pages are specified in settings so 8 pages are opened on startup.

Adding Jay to help triaging this crbug.

Good morning all!
I too have experience this issue. 6 tabs are pinned, 4 not. The 6 tabs are always duplicated (6 pinned, 6 not). Support just informed me this is in fact expected behavior. I have been encouraged to consider using "Continue where you left off" instead of "Open specific pages"

This was the gist of my reply:
I would suggest to the good engineers at Google that users would disagree that this behavior should be continued. We would argue that having the pinned tabs virtually invisible to this setting in Chrome is not what the user expects or wants. 

I am actually very surprised many folks have not brought this issue to the attention of support. I am sure many business users operate like I do: the same platforms are used daily. Some need to be accessed on and off all day, others just once a day. Thus some are pinned and others are not. 

From a users perspective, it makes no sense to duplicate tabs. It also makes no sense to push us to use "Continue where you left off" since that is not what we are doing...we are starting fresh from the same place each day. 

Please consider adjusting the important feature.
Thanks, Mark@watchhelp.com
Hello Team,

Good day!
I just want to request for any updates on this for the customer.

Thank you!

Looks like FR to me - there is an easy workaround for now, just don't add pinned tabs to startup list or don't pin startup pages. 
FR would be to check if there duplicates, but there might be a problem with logic - which should take precedence? Pinned or startup? Most likely there would be someone annoyed by either.
