This wasn't the case in the past. Has the matching strategy changed
recently? The matching used to use "fuzzy" techniques based on the
number and length of tracks on the disc, with some leeway included.
This is why sometimes you could load in a CD and have freedb find
completely the wrong disc. I've even seen a few cases where a CDR
transfer from an LP was loaded, and freedb successfully found the
equivalent commercial CD release - and since I made those CDRs I know
for a fact that they have no disc IDs.
