It sounds like fileA@=123 is a change that does not need to be integrated, but
there are earlier changes that do require integration.  This statement
was a little confusing to me:

but if the revision was a "no-op" this seems to support the theory
that it's correct for an integration of that specific revision to not do
anything.

A Revision Graph screenshot that captures all the relevant information about all
the revisions involved is often a good way to illustrate a scenario like
this.  If that's difficult to arrange, the "language"
I've generally used for the past ten years in describing p4 integrate
scenarios is   itest [https://www.perforce.com/blog/i-test-you-test] .
