We could also argue that writing interfaces in general is code duplication. Duplicating source code or data is bad only if future bugs and enhancements are not guaranteed to be applied to all the copies. It's not the case here because if the Map module of the standard library ever changes in an incompatible way, your .ml will no longer be compatible with your .mli and the compiler will not let this pass. Duplicating the comments of the standard map.mli may however not such a good idea because as always the compiler ignores them. Adding something like (* See the documentation of the standard Map module *) seems reasonable to me.
