Thank you Pedro
The problem is the following:

As you can see the system searches for Art, ignoring the subfields.
So your last record may have the subject "Art -- History", so you have to find this specific subject and then click on "keep the existing subject" button.
When I create the record, yes, the validation of the authorities is absolutely important and I will validate th subjects one by one.
But when I want to do a modification maybe it would be nice to have an extra option "Keep the existing subjects" automatically. But the the exact subjects! e.g. Art -- History
Thank you for this creative discussion.
