This is what I was thinking and I'm happy to see somebody else articulated it, because I wasn't going to put in the effort to try and explain.

Anons, multiple sources of literature on complex material like this is always good. Sometimes it takes a slightly different way of things being worded for a concept to click in one's head, so redundancy with subjects can be beneficial.

Also spaced repetition theory should remind you that you'll only further be ingraining the knowledge if you come across it in alternate texts.

Plus you have extra problem sets and examples to work from and reference.

It all depends on the scope of what your goals are - if you are going for something that requires mastery or you're looking to break new ground in some field, then it could be a huge boon.

Alternately if you learn this stuff just because you have tons of free time and don't plan on putting it to actual use then you can probably skip the saturated and redundant literature recommendations.
