I compared by converting both to raw PCM (with sox) and compared those instead because I wasn't particularly interested header info preservation. I only cared about the samples. Turns out that the same samples were in both, in the right order, and the number of the samples were the same (in fact the raw PCM files were identical), so I concluded that FLAC did right by me and now I use FLAC.
