Created 2 teapots and grouped them.

Resultant osm actually has 4, not 2, entities, and the group as a helper.

Note: Hiding the group prevents output of the helper in the scene, but still outputs double entities.

I will review the duplicated entities immediately

If you dont want groups (or other helpers) you can disable them using the "Export Helpers" option in the export dialog
