Re-read the text. You are interpreting something that isn't there.

No, that's explicitly *not* what C6 says. Instead, it says that a
process that treats s1 and s2 differently shall not assume that others
will do the same, i.e. that it is ok to treat them the same even though
they have different code points. Treating them differently is also
conforming.
