I may be misunderstanding you but I don't think it's redundant. The inline citations do point to specific pages on the record book, and on some of the profiles where I use this source, different inline citations point to different pages in the record. That was the reason I decided to use this method rather than <ref name=xx> tags, i.e., so I could have inline citations that point to different pages in the same source without repeating the whole full citation multiple times. This way, a click on any inline citation takes you down to the single full citation in the bulleted source list, and then if you want more detail, clicking on the link in the full source takes you to the free space profile which has all of the background information about the source, including images and transcriptions.
But I agree it could be confusing and if it's contrary to policy I can figure out another way to do it. Thanks for the feedback.
