Interesting, I thought it might be something like that.

Yea, 'canonicalizing' is really tough (although I don't know if you really need to get it *perfect*) because what is correct is different in different contexts.

Accounting Software as an example again, for the category overall canonicalizing any reference to Quickbooks to the same company makes sense. If you're asking about more specific recommendations though 'Accounting software for sole traders', you might have both Quickbooks Online and Quickbooks EasyStart mentioned, and they are actually slightly different products. Or Netsuite is actually a suite of products that might all make sense in slightly different contexts.
