If there's a difference visible, that's a weakness in the encryption algorithm.
Encrypted data should be statistically indistinct from random noise.
It's an information theory thing. Everything in the ciphertext should be sitting at maximum entropy.

Try it for yourself brother, there is a plainly obvious difference between the random noise of writing garbage compared to a properly encrypted binary.
There are even statistically measurable differences in the garbage written across versions of a tool or OS, which, unlike the invented scenario above, has been successfully used to place a time window on when exactly someone destroyed evidence.
