Doesn't appear to be true:
joey@kite:/tmp/scratch/a> ls -l
total 3
-rw-rw-r-- 3 joey joey 3 May 3 00:59 bar
-rw-rw-r-- 3 joey joey 3 May 3 00:59 baz
-rw-rw-r-- 3 joey joey 3 May 3 00:59 foo
joey@kite:/tmp/scratch/a> cd ..
joey@kite:/tmp/scratch> ls
a/
joey@kite:/tmp/scratch> cp -a a b
joey@kite:/tmp/scratch> cd b
joey@kite:/tmp/scratch/b> ls -l
total 3
-rw-rw-r-- 3 joey joey 3 May 3 00:59 bar
-rw-rw-r-- 3 joey joey 3 May 3 00:59 baz
-rw-rw-r-- 3 joey joey 3 May 3 00:59 foo
