Can the solution be three identical digits, such as 333 or 444?

Several players reach the same redundancy argument, and the designer states the principle behind it.

Rarely. No verifier checks for a triple of a specific digit, since that would fix the code and make the others redundant, so you can usually rule out a code like 333 when a verifier counting that digit is in play. Otherwise a triple is not excluded: a no-pairs verifier does not rule one out, because a triple is not a pair.
