To rephrase what Dmitry says, when you have content fallback, the
fallback happens because you ask for L=1 but content is not available
for this language and you configured TYPO3 to return content of L=0
instead (or another combination). But in the first place, you told TYPO3
to show the page /as if it were translated/, meaning you have your
original language in the URL. And thus the "same" segment for RealURL,
as Dmitry explained, there is no magic, you stick to some value of L
because you configured TYPO3 to provide content fallback, RealURL keeps
the same segment, that's just logical.

If you don't want to have content fallback, deactivate the page if it is
not translated or do something else, you should consider go through the
Frontend Localization Guide [1] to learn how to configure TYPO3 to act
as you wish it would do "automagically".
