The doc says:

In OTLP, the service.name, service.namespace, and service.instance.id triplet is required to be unique

This is incorrect, OTLP requires nothing like that. The uniqueness requirement is merely a semantic convention for Services, which are not even the only type of the Resource that Otel deals with.
