RFC3983:
"A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is a compact sequence of

Yes, I agree with that.
2 URIs, therefore 2 resources.
I disagree with your interpretation though.
But I'm not interpreting anything there. The definition is a URI
identifies a resource. Ergo two different URIs identify two resources.
Nonsense, and I'm surprised to hear it.
Given two distinct URIs the most you can determine is that you have two
distinct URIs.
You do not know how many resources are identified, there may be no
resources, one, two, or full sets of resources.
Do see RFC3986, especially the section on equivalence.
