Keys do not have to be identical. they just need to generate the same address. and for each address there are about 2^96 keys that will work.
Maybe I did not exactly say. The selection of a key is practically impossible, if all real addresses are divided into all possible variants of the keys to them, then still a too large number 2^160 / 2^96 = 1.845*10^19 unique possible private keys
