Is the player in the CPG slot actioning rockets on the Cyclic or the left TEDAC grip? If actioned on the Cyclic, COOP cannot be entered.

Why is that so? Why we have duplicate key bindings in the game that cause such error?

It's not a duplicate key binding or an error, that's how it is in the real aircraft.

If the CPG actions rockets on the TEDAC, he clearly isn't flying so he cannot align the aircraft with the rocket steering, so COOP mode is entered if the Pilot actions rockets as well.

If the CPG actions rockets on the Cyclic, it is assumed he is flying the aircraft and therefore is the one aligning the aircraft with the rocket steering, using the HMD, instead of the pilot. Since only one person should be flying, it takes the rocket control away from the Pilot.

Well than this functionality is not documented in manual and players have to bind twice the more buttons.

Cooperative mode can only be entered when the CPG actions rockets on the TEDAC Left Handgrip and the Pilot actions rockets on the Cyclic Grip.

To be clear, this behavior is documented in the Early Access Guide under the descriptions for both Weapon Action Switches on the TEDAC and Cyclic grips, as well as the Weapon Employment chapter which details the procedures for employing Cooperative rockets (both Direct and Indirect).
