Of course you cant get the same for them! It is expected that a fork that creates new coins out of thin air will lead to cheaper coins.

And so scarcity still exists which was the original point I made and which was being challenged.

Each coin has a unique history. You can create as many forks of bitcoin as you want it doesn't change the fact that there is only one bitcoin.
