If I see two of the same messages for one person, I am just going to ignore it.
I think he will only open one of them.
If he/she only opens one of them, wouldn't that still be OK since I am trying to increase the chances of him/her opening my email/inmail?
I wouldn't do this. It's too weird.
agreed, this is super stalker
To add to my last comment, I would only ever consider using LinkedIn to message someone if I don't have their email - if you have the email there is no need to use LinkedIn

If you're sure it's their email, just following up a second time (a week or two later) might be the best way to go about getting a better response rate.
Is The Real Max's way the most common approach to increase the response rate after you have sent a cold email or an email to an alumnus and not received a response? This might be a weird question, but would you keep sending the same follow up email every week?
Are you autistic or something?
Follow up once, maaaaaybe twice. But if after 2 or 3 emails you don't get a response, it means they're ignoring you purposely.
Knocking on their door, taking out full-page ads in the WSJ and hiring a skywriter will almost guarantee a response.
