For me it's not that big a deal. I can live with it.
The only time I'd use that repository is when I know there is a beta to pull. Easy enough to just uncomment slackpkgplug.conf when needed.
Code:
slackpkg search slackpkg
Looking for slackpkg in package list. Please wait... DONE
The list below shows all packages with name matching "slackpkg".

Is there a way to combine sections of package names like name and version only?
use regex
slackpkg-2.*
Code:
# All of the following will be checked for the regex:
# Package series, name, version, arch, build, and fullname
...
# To blacklist *all* of the "xorg-server-*" packages, use this:
# xorg-server.*
Tried that, does not work, it blacklist slackpkg completely.

Using VERBOSE=3 and looking at the contents of /tmp/slackpkg.0FHQxb/blacklist
Tested with patch. Only duplicate programs I have installed are the kernel packages. Three of them 5.10.34, 5.12.0 and 5.12.1, the running kernel is 5.12.1
slackpkg w/slackpkg+ worked fine before this patch for those packages. It also works with the patch.

However I'm reviewing that.
In this legacy system I used 'grep -E'
Slackpkg 2.82.1 (slackware 14.2) uses 'grep -Ew' (and greylist uses it too).
So the new patch (available to test branch on git too) does reintroduces 'grep -Ew'

If I not forgotten something, now it should work EXACTLY as slackware 14.2 work, vanishing all the work made to allow slackpkg to not generate false positive on blacklist from three years to now.
