You need to learn when to give up. :-)

I wasn't the one who added a copy() method to other containers.  I personally 
despise almost all uses of "copying" (including the entire copy module, both 
deep and shallow copy functionality).  I much prefer to write e.g. list(x) over 
x.copy() -- when I say list(x) I know the type of the result.
