That is exactly the behaviour the standard wants to avoid. The

of SUS is also pretty clear, "resolve to the same existing name" does
mean nothing less than having the same inode for a traditional Unix
filesystem. I also won't say this behaviour is counter-intuitive, it
makes as much sense as just dropping the old node.
The standard is clear to me: it doesn't talk about links, but symbolic
links.
No, it has been talking about symlinks explicitly before.
Exactly.  Re-reading the standard, it isn't just clear: it's absolutely 
clear.  This is just about symlinks.
