Should the dupe message say "has a better answer" rather than "already has an answer"?

Question

Precedent shows that some Question Foo can be marked as a duplicate of Question Bar, even though Foo was asked before Bar.^{(Cite: 267081)} This shows that one question can be called a duplicate of another not based on time, but on quality of answer.^{(Cite: 251938, 189782, 169388)}

Thus, instead of:

_{This question already has an answer here:}
Question Bar? N answers

Shouldn't it read something like this?

_{This question has a better answer here:}
Question Bar? N answers

Or even more accurate to our methodology:

_{This question is posed and/or discussed better here:}
Question Bar? N answers

Answer 1

No, it shouldn't.

While some older questions may be closed as duplicates of newer questions with higher quality answers, that doesn't always happen. Sometimes questions are just closed as duplicates of older questions, without regard to answer quality.

In addition, I don't think the message should say "has a better answer" since "better" is subjective. One user may find one answer to be more helpful, but another user may find the other answer to be more helpful.

Also, "has a better answer" implies that the duplicate question has been answered. What if there's no answer on the duplicate question? Then it wouldn't make sense to say "has a better answer".
