I think you mean 6.2.1.  You are right; these two statements violate
6.2.1 and this is thus not legal.

Consider what this would mean in the model above:

  augement /baz {
    ...
  }

Section 5.6 is about server conformance, and the first sentence is:

   Conformance to a model is a measure of how accurately a server
   follows the model.

Namespaces are not related to how accurately a server follows a model.
