This issue has been mentioned on SocialHub. There might be relevant details there:
https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/clarification-re-inbox-forwarding/4239/2
Absolutely reasonable, this is an error in the text that can be misleading. I've created an erratum here:
https://www.w3.org/wiki/ActivityPub_errata/Proposed
Which reads: In section 7.1.2, the sentence The server MUST only target the values of to, cc, and/or audience on the original object being forwarded should read The server MUST only target the values of to, cc, and/or audience on the original activity being forwarded.
We can review at our next CG meeting and if accepted add it to the errata and the editor's draft.

https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/#inbox-forwarding
This section refers to an Activity being received for forwarding, but the emphasized section erroneously refers to an object being forwarded (instead of an activity being forwarded).
Resolution
Errata: "the original object being forwarded" -> "the original activity being forwarded"
