This part's intentional. You can't discard them because there's no way to get them again if you did. You can put them in the armoire so they don't take up storage space.

The ability to get them from Jonathas was introduced in 4.1, and with that, the ability to end up with duplicates. They had never been discardable, but when people only got the one they were mailed as a vet reward, and could dump it in the Armoire, that wasn't an issue. Now, duplicates are an issue. SE should update Jonathas to not trade them to you if you already have one (including having it on a retainer or in your armoire).

I'm pretty sure the mounts, minions, and bardings already work this way, that you can't trade for them if you already have them. But for gear it checks only whether you have it in current active inventory, which can leave you with a non-discardable duplicate if you have it elsewhere.
