The "ours" strategy doesn't just avoid merge conflicts, it avoids making
any changes at all. The ours strategy means "just keep our state, just
pretend that we've merged". And rebase will see that there were no
changes and conclude:

Already applied: 0001 test commit

And thus it will drop the commit.
