I would that that this applies only if both were Real Rabbis, that is
to say, with Real Semicha -- which we do not have today.

Today, they would both be affected the same way, though were can't be

Real Semicha makes a difference for a bet din, malkot or monetary
fines why should it make a difference for Yoreh Deah type questions?
