I'm confused; surely there could exist a client that can parse both Bitcoin and NotBitcoin, even if it uses an identical protocol to talk about them.

Yes. the creation of such a client does not seem to be a technical difficulty. Convincing people to use it and treat the two currencies as equivalent is what isn't trivial.
