Nonzero equivalence conjecture for negative scoring positions

From papers

Let PTx \mathcal{PT}_{-x} be the set of scoring-play game positions in which every node has value x>0x>0 and the initial score is 00. Write G0G\cong 0 for equivalence to the zero game and G=0G=0 for equality with the zero game. Nonzero equivalence conjecture. For all GPTxG\in\mathcal{PT}_{-x}, if G≇0G\not\cong 0 then G0G\neq 0. This follows a discussion of whether scoring games can behave like normal-play games, but the source provides no argument resolving the stated implication.
