Question about redeeming the same game on PS Plus at different tiers

I saw several reports of people who lost access to games previously redeemed through PS Plus Essential when downloading them through PS Plus Extra/Premium. It appears that a game can have only one license slot for PS Plus and so it may be overwritten in certain conditions. This happened with games like Greedfall, Mafia 3, Bugsnax, among others according to people's reports.
E.g: https://www.reddit.com/r/PlayStationPlus/comments/yxc1rm/dont_add_games_youve_already_got_through_previous/

 

My question, however, is the opposite. If someone redeems the game through Plus Extra/Premium but that same game is later offered as a monthly game through PS Plus Essential, will it be possible to redeem this game? Will there be a license conflict preventing it from being added to the account?

 

I ask this because there are several reports from the time of PS Now (which worked in a similar way to today's PS Plus tiers) in which users were prevented from redeeming the monthly game offered.

E.g: https://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2022/11/27/ps-plus-games-locked-issue/

I would appreciate if someone who has experienced this situation can clarify how it works.
