Calling it a copy seems to me to violate QM's no cloning theorem, but maybe it's just that we have slightly different definitions of 'copy'.

The no cloning theorem is just the rigorous quantum mechanical version of the fact that if you flip a coin and write down the result, then copy what you just wrote down, you don't get two independent coin flips.
