Holiday gift duplicate pet problem

i understand the mechanics (now)
but i opened 20 gifts in a row as a fun thing to do not knowing this yet…
it gave me 3 the same pets and double transmog…

made me unhappy, is there no way of blizzard being nice and giving 2 new pets as i got lucky to get a pet 3 times and if i would have openened them one by one i would have gotten 3 different once?

No.

They do not instance-state random item drops, so even if they did a rollback, and this would be a very silly use of the few you might have, you’d go back to before you used any of the gifts or may not even have them.

About pets:
You got the same pet because you don’t have it in your library.
The best way is to open your gifts one by one. If you get a pet, use the recipe and open your next gift.

About items:
There is no rules, so you can have the same transmogs several times
