Sorry, I do not quite understand.

In "git diff A B -- path", if the object name recorded for A:path
and B:path are the same, but the replacement mechanism maps the
object name for that blob object to some other blob object, wouldn't
the result be empty because both sides replace to the same thing
anyway?
