No.  If you type C-n twice fast enough, Emacs will behave the same as
if you type C-2 C-n.

If you type these two commands quickly so that there's no intervening
redisplay, Emacs _will_ behave the same, and I would expect it to.

And I don't see any point in continue arguing about this, since we
have very different expectations and different perspective.  Let's
agree to disagree.
