Inconsistent Tab Naming for Same Page (NeetCode) #5405

Description

@danish-parvez

The same page sometimes appears with different tab names in the NeetCode interface, even though the URL is identical.

For example:
• One tab is labeled “Problems”
• Another tab (below it) is labeled “Design Hashset – NeetCode”

Both tabs point to the exact same URL:
https://neetcode.io/problems/design-hashset/question

This makes it appear as if they are different pages, when in fact they are the same.

Steps to Reproduce
1. Open the Design Hashset problem on NeetCode.
2. Navigate between sections (e.g., Problems list → specific problem).
3. Observe the tab names in the left navigation / tab bar.

Expected Behavior
The tab name should be consistent for the same URL and page context.
For example, always:
• “Design Hashset – NeetCode”
or
• A consistent problem-based naming convention.

Actual Behavior
The same page is shown under different tab names (“Problems” vs “Design Hashset – NeetCode”), despite sharing the same URL.

Impact
• Causes confusion about whether multiple tabs/pages are open
• Makes navigation and mental mapping harder
• Reduces overall UX clarity

Additional Notes
This appears to be a tab title / routing state issue rather than a content issue. The page content itself loads correctly.
