Surely they're the same encoding applied to a different set of points?

Or would you claim that the function f(x) = 1/x on the interval 0 < x
< 1 is a different function from f(x) = 1/x on the interval 0 < x < 2?
In a sense they are different functions, but it's convenient and
natural to give them the same name, and they can both have the same
implementation if you leave it to the caller to check that x is in
range.
