I guess I don't know what people are talking about here with copy.
But, I would be hesitant to remove morph in order to rely on some
sideeffect of a different operation. If we want PMCs to be able to
change their types, we want to use something that's specific for that
behavior, not a copy that happens to be able to change the type of the
things it copies.
