How to stop blender from generating duplicate vertices on export?

Yes, I know, use mesh -> clean up -> remove by distance. I did that, and in blender, it appears as if things are all fine and dandy, I made 3 cubes and made pyramids at the end, total vertex count is 18, makes sense to me. Export object as gltf, and I get... 84 vertices...

This is the GLTF report

gltf image, and my blender:

You can see in the bottom corner, 18 verts....

And for the final touch, here's the output from my tiny_gltf loader c++ program, which outputs vertices, and says the number of vertexes and indexes.

Look at all those duplicates! how do I stop blender from ruining my meshes on export?
