It is anything but "normal". The "normal" state of things is documented by proc(5). As documented by that man page, rather plainly, readlink("/proc/self/exe") gives you your own pathname. That's the "normal" state of things, if "normal" means anything. When that no longer holds true, that's not "normal".
process not being able to cope with it should be fixed.
Broken maintenance scripts, of dubiuous benefit, that randomly rewrite unrelated binaries, should be fixed.
