Rules below would be tested, but they wouldn't match unless the pattern starts with scheme + :// + url-path.

unless the RewriteCond pattern starts with /. The above matches just fine.

I meant this hypothetical case

RewriteRule ^/a /b [R]
RewriteRule ^/b /c

Without the L-flag, and after /a has been substituted with /b, the 

second rule would be tested not against /b but against http://[host]/b, 

so the result is not /c.

So removing the L flag in that case won't change r->filename to /c

while using

RewriteRule ^/a /b [R]
RewriteRule /b /c

would now end up in /c and no external redirection takes place at all.
