Consider a scenario such as:
Setups like this cause an error: Engine Parser returns something like : PVM Exception: duplicate activity id IntermediateCatchEvent_432432.
Can someone explain why a second event gateway cannot point back to a event used by another gateway?
The BPMN specification disallows this as follows:
I guess the engine does not properly validate this case, so it doesn’t throw a better exception. Same goes for the modeler.

@thorben do you know the reasoning behind this? (from the bpmn spec perspective)
Not really. My guess is that this is easier to implement that way.
