Not sure if you caught my earlier comment, Robert, but what you say here is 
only true of half-band filters. (If I understand what you're saying correctly?) 
That is, if you don't want significant aliasing in the general case, your 
filter has to be set a bit lower, and in that case it's filtering those 
original points, so you can't just copy them.

Of course, there are uses for half-band filters, and in those cases you do get 
a bonus for using them.
