there is no balance in this address that you linked here. and there should not be any, BCash has implemented a well working replay protection which prevents from things like that (a transaction being replayed in another chain) from happening.

the address being valid on other copies of bitcoin is just because they copied bitcoin without thinking and have been causing a lot of problems during the years starting from litecoin (copied P2SH) and has been going on until today with all these nonsense forks.

Agreed but isn't peculiar that there are 2 identical addies with the original and a fork of
BTC?

well you can't prevent people from copying bitcoin and when those who copy it are either incompetent or have other reasons (like misleading people) they don't change things that they should.
that is one of many reasons why "fork coins" are considered shitcoins, you never see same problems with original projects that actually have something innovative and are not just copycats.
