Duplicating Synth Presets

When a synth is used on two tracks, they cannot play together.
The logic behind this is understandable - it's the same instrument so why would there be multiple tracks of the same instrument - right?
Well the answer is simple. If I want the same instrument to play both a bass line and a solo pitch, it's a mess because I'm "forced" to put everything down the same track - and then the vertical scrolling becomes something very unpleasant.
I would like to be able to either:
Be able to duplicate synth presets (Copy to new).
ORBe able to have two tracks un-muted at the same time using the same synth preset.

one of the "paradox" suggestions imho: pops up every 1-2 months and usually dont get a lot of upvotes.
for me the problem is it remains unclear what exactly should change and how. i fear either we have a new functionality that does not fit to the current track clone or we have to deal with possibly breaking backwards compatibility when chaning how track clone works.
I had no idea, that's a bit disappointing for something as important. I'd suggest at least documenting the current behaviour better (what's linked and what's not). Allowing a synth to be duplicated to a completely new preset number might also be a good idea.
