Command Line file duplicate name question

#1

I checked the superhero folder and batman.txt was already there.
However, I also moved a batman.txt from the action folder to the superhero folder.
When I went inside the superhero folder, only one batman.txt was in there.
I also just experimented and tried creating another batman.txt folder there and there were no changes.
It also doesn't give me an error saying I can't create a file with the same name or anything like that.
So what's going on in here?
Do I have two batman.txt files? Or just one?
And what happens if the contents are different?
Do they just combine together? Or is the other one never created?

What do you expect to happen if you do the same in a graphical file explorer?
