Identifiers are not subject to "simplification" -- they are either equivalent or not. We can add all of the implementation requirements we like to prevent software from detecting false negatives, but that doesn't change the fact that equivalent identifiers always identify the same resource.

Define "equivalent" and/or "actually different" in spec text please. Good luck.
