Yes, it would definately be more meaningfull, but for an algorithm it's
not that clear cut. Michael Hagerty is currently working on a patch
series[1] to give git some heuristics to get better diffs, but is hard
to get right.

You can already enable this by adding --compaction-heuristic to the diff
command, but this can also give odd results in other cases, so it's not
enabled by default.
