There's no need to tell the DHCP server this; it's a requirement of the
DHCP protocol.

Expected behaviour is that the DHCP dialog between client and
server will be duplicated on account of being repeated by each relay.

No. NAK is not used to suppress duplicate requests; it is used to signal
that a requested address is invalid for the subnet in question. Sending
NAK for a duplicate request would invalidate the existing lease for the
same address.

The server will normally give the SAME address for each request from the
same client identified by client identifier or (if no client identifier
is configured) MAC address. This, unless the client has failed to renew
the lease for such a long time that another client has been assigned the
address in question.

I hope this helps.
