Summarise and then check and flag up for further analysis later if needs be yes, but not at all sentence by sentence cross-check.

For sure. Google puts out a lot of information (and disinformation) that people latch on to and parrot over and over.
If they scare you into thinking they're doing something, you probably aren't going to do it. This allows them to get the "effect" without having to code the "cause."
I think they DO check for duplicates, on some level, probably on the same IP or block of IPs. It wouldn't be, for example, advantageous, to create a bunch of clones of the same site on your server. This, also, is speculation, based on nothing more than what Google has said, true or not.
