One of the editions had the ASIN in the ISBN field, I merged that edition with the other.

Should a paperback book have an ASIN? I thought that was for Kindle books. Maybe this book was entered into the system incorrectly?

Yes, physical books now have ASIN. That's a relatively recent policy change.However, it seems like a bot run on Dec 19, 2022 has added many books with ASIN only that need to be merged back. In this case ASIN only and ISBN should be merged. Sadly, one needs to contact support for each and every one of these. I suspect there may be many thousands of them.
