How do Rejection / Duplication agreements work?

There's a weird corner case that I've seen a few times and I'm not sure how it's counted. I doubt any users do, but I'll throw it out for discussion anyway.
Let's say that I look at the submission and at a first glance it's completely obvious that it's a 1* rejection, like it's an active K-12 school. When I hit something where the rejection is obvious I usually just click 1* and finish the rejection sequence.
However, a few times while doing this I've seen out of the corner of my eye that the candidate is also a duplicate of an existing wayspot. That leaves me with a dilemma... do I reject it as K-12, or do I reject it as a dupe? My real question is what happens with agreements on these. I know that user stats are separated between reject and duplicate, but I wonder if they're a yes/no under the hood or if agreements are based on whether the consensus of reviewers is reject, or whether it's duplicate.
In other words, am I playing a guessing game as to whether reviewers are more likely to choose reject or duplicate?

I have had this dilemma as well, not only in the situation you describe where I am going too fast to see a duplicate of something that shouldn't be a wayspot in the first place, but also when the existing wayspot is fine, but the photo for the new nomination is rejectable (usually for recognizable face[s]). Because the photo from nominations marked as a duplicate gets added to the existing wayspot, I am hesitant to mark these nominations with unacceptable photos as duplicates, even when it is a clear duplicate. Ideally, we could just reject these and not have it negatively affect agreements even if other reviewers did mark as duplicate.
