Later on, the same chord is used that does include a G... Does this
change things?! :)
Yes, very much.
The reason why 6/9 chord is used by specifying to omit major 7th is
because melody is root of the chord, that will produce distractive
flat
9th sound. If there is no root in the strong beat of the melody,
there
is no need to use 6/9 chord. It is more correct to say Maj 13th. In
another word, 6/9 chord notation is to tell the performer "don't dear
voice major 7th!".
