Steps to reproduce

I am trying to use diff mode and compare line-by-line by setting a following simple script to &diffexpr. This script skips an empty line and continues to compare the next line.

set diffexpr=MyDiff()
function! MyDiff()
  let [in, new] = [readfile(v:fname_in), readfile(v:fname_new)]
  let [len_in, len_new] = [len(in), len(new)]
  let out = []
  let [ln_in, ln_new] = [0, 0]
  while ln_in < len_in && ln_new < len_new
    let [text_in, text_new] = [in[ln_in], new[ln_new]]
    let [empty_in, empty_new] = [empty(text_in), empty(text_new)]
    if empty_in == empty_new
      if text_in != text_new
        let out += [(ln_in + 1) . 'c' . (ln_new + 1)]
      endif
      let [ln_in, ln_new] += [1, 1]
    else
      if empty_in | let ln_in += 1 | endif
      if empty_new | let ln_new += 1 | endif
    endif
  endwhile
  call writefile(out, v:fname_out)
endfunction

Case 1:

:windo diffthis

Both lines should be highlighted as changed lines, but the 2nd one in the left window is highlighted as added line.
In this case, ['1c1', '2c2'] is written to v:fname_out.

Case 2:

:windo diffthis

Both lines should be highlighted as changed lines, but the 2nd one in the right window is not highlighted.
In this case, ['1c1', '3c2'] is written to v:fname_out.

Expected behaviour

Both lines should be highlighted as changed lines.
