@BatmanAoD @Miaou It is just what you are used to.
In C++ everything is a copy. Sometimes the compiler optimizes it away. clang-tidy may help. Having a clone() is very C-like.

    That's a common idiom but the default behaviour is still implicit copy, which, with VLAs and no smart pointers, makes things arguably worse than in c++
