If in either case, the URI returns a document, it is consistent and successful in the behavioral semantic of dereferencing. It is unsuccessful in the semantic of "find".

Hmm ... I treat "dereference" as a success verb like find. You can _try_ to find something and not find it. But you can't unsuccessfully find something, you've just ... not found it. Ditto for dereference.
