Find Identical instances/elements in revit and delete older elements

Hi all, A very good evening to all.

I am trying to find the identical instances/elements (placed at the same location/position) and after getting the list of identical elements, I want to delete the older identical elements and retain the new elements. Can anyone help me for this ?

I was trying it with id but getting confusion how I can proceed.

Thanks in advance.

What determines which one is the older element?

Element Locations would be identical and testable when cast to a point.

Another component that could be helpful is the documents warnings component; it provides the elements in a branched list that are throwing the Identical Instances warning.
