I can only add 4 files at a time...
"Finder" makes me do extra work by clicking: Apply to All > Keep Both.
*If, for example, I try to add 5 files simultaneously, the only option "Finder" gives me, is to Replace the files.
Thanks in advance.

No, not without selecting Use Both on the dialog that results from name space filename collision, and appending a generation number to the filename for each occurrence of the same original filename.
In a case-insensitive filesystem, ABC.txt and abc.txt share the same name space. When you get the Finder dialog that offers to use both, cancel, or replace, the use both will append a generation number to the filename.
If I copy IMG_0321.JPG into a folder, and then repeat this copy, when I choose Keep Both, then I have two identical, content files in the folder:
IMG_0321.JPG
IMG_0321 2.JPG
and on a third copy and selecting Keep Both, the IMG_0321 3.JPG joins its predecessors. There is no alternative to this Finder naming convention when depositing duplicate filenames into the same folder.

Is there a way to add multiple copies of the same file into one folder ?
