Scroll down to the algorithm in 5.2.2, and it backs up Tim and Sam,
in particular this:
if (R.path == "") then
T.path = Base.path;
It seems pretty clear to me that whoever wrote the same-document
references section simply wasn't thinking about embedded base URIs,
and thus it can be safely ignored. Your interpretation would
contradict not just the algorithm but practically the whole of the
rest of the document.
