Class redefinitions are mainly useful during incremental development,
i.e. when you load a new version of a file that has already been
loaded previously.
I'd say it would be OK to reject (or warn about) redefinitions of any
kind when they occur in a single file, that is, when a name is defined
twice at two different locations in a file.
