null null null null We decided to post a new factorial challenge. Should we close the old one as dupe?

null null null nullnull null null nullnull null null nullnull null null nullnull null null nullnull null null nullThe existing factorial challenge has some restrictions on the domain, performance, and banning built-ins. I opened a meta question about it a week ago, and as per the meta consensus, we decided to post a new vanilla factorial challenge. The sandboxed challenge is here.

Now the problem is: Should we close the old factorial challenge as a dupe of the new one?

The existing factorial challenge has some restrictions on the domain, performance, and banning built-ins. I opened a meta question about it a week ago, and as per the meta consensus, we decided to post a new vanilla factorial challenge. The sandboxed challenge is here.

Now the problem is: Should we close the old factorial challenge as a dupe of the new one?

My personal opinion is "no", as I wrote at the end of the sandboxed challenge:

I believe it is not a dupe because the solutions to the existing challenge are not likely to be competitive here, and solutions to this one are not likely to be valid on the other.
