Just like GNU diff, the only thing -w (and -b) does is to omit hunks whose changes consist of _only whitespace changes_ and nothing else.
In your quoted example, you have changes other than whitespace changes, so it is unsurprising that you will see the whole change, together with your whitespace changes.
