i'm drunk and i just dig all day at EG anyway and don't give much of a shit, but this is the first time I've seen something like this... maybe i just don't pay attention enough to see that this happens regularly.

Happens all the time. You don't actually get two services when you get spun twice.

The spinner just randomly picks any person in the room, there are no other factors (you can't program it) so this can happen a lot.

But does someone else miss out because a spin was wasted on someone who was already picked?

Most of the time they respin for that slot.

Well if you ask some players the spinners are coded so that a GM can enter a list of their favorite players and the spinner will give them more weighting so they are more likely to be spun.

There's settings for those things so they don't choose a person twice. I've only seen one merchant use it here.

I thought this was what this thread was going to be about, I call shenanigans on this one!

Or was this just copy and paste fail?

GMs can set their spinner to only pick a player in XXX time-frame (one per day, week, etc)
