I am sure that there are good technical reasons for these choices (and that they are constrained by the current lack of templating system). If the user knows them, he can engineer his data to avoid copies.
To help the user, I think that it would be great to try and systematically document them in the 'notes' section of the docstring. I myself keep forgetting to do it, but it can save our users (or our developers, as in the case of Andy) a lot of time.
