object instances though, if you want to duplicate those, you have to
write a clone method of some sort.

I really thought (and was hoping) that when you ask a function for some data that it returns a copy of that data not a reference to that objects data. What is the standard practice for this? How do you truly protect an objects data from corruption if when you use a getter on it it returns a reference pointer not a copy?
