Survey Basics:
Any advice?
Very common question. You cannot remove items from the list. The best you can do it stop them from adding another repeat with the same value.
There are 2 ways.
First uses join to make a list of values that you then check against.
See my code here https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/repeat-duplicate-preventer/m-p/1155978#M414...

The other way uses javascript.

Hope that helps
