Loading collection data...
Collections are a way for you to organize kata so that you can create your own training routines. Every collection you create is public and automatically sharable with other warriors. After you have added a few kata to a collection you and others can train on the kata contained within the collection.
Get started now by creating a new collection.
I'm pretty sure there are no tests that define the opening/closing characters more than once in separate pairs.
So by definition yes it should work, but you are trying to achieve more than the kata requires you to.
For the record, I wouldn't be surprised if the reference implementation I wrote failed on this test. :)
