I would also like this. However, I am not sure how Dolphin arrives at the
decision that files seem to be identical. Does it look at timestamps and file
size? When I copy between different devices/mountpoints (specifically external
harddrive connected via USB and SD card on my Android phone connected over
MTP), it only says that files that are identical are similar. Does it perform
something like md5sum hash on them when they are on the same drive and not when
they are on different drives?

So my original suggestion would have been to include the filesize down to bytes
and possibly md5sum in the comparison.
