Not just common sense. It's provable that if you have 2 different compiled programs, it's undecidable in the general sense wether these 2 programs perform the same function.

Signature-based detection will find something if the signature is there, but if someone makes an identical program that does the same, but its code is different (for example, by morphing the instructions, virtualizing them, or simple code encryption), an AV can only rely on heuristics to detect something malicious and heuristics are fallible by definition.

Another point to consider: let's say you have 2 mathemathical expressions. Proving the equivalency of these two arbitrary expressions is akin to solving the halting problem. Possible in concrete cases, but not in any case.
