Error Message

The error message does not make sense to me, since the linked question currently has 4 upvotes (although no accepted answer). Why can't I close this? Is this a bug?

I can't read! The error message says

This question does not have an upvoted or accepted answer

and I misread that as

The question linked as the duplicate must have an answer, as explained on Meta: Changes to "close as duplicate" (part deux) (thanks to Glorfindel for the link), except when closed by a mod or when both questions are from the same user.
