For creating copy of objects we use clone method and Cloneable interfaces, which means we need to deal with the CloneNotSupportedExceptions and keep in mind the "magic" of the clone method. More about this topic in https://www.artima.com/articles/josh-bloch-on-design#part13 (section "Copy Constructor versus Cloning").

We could use instead copy constructors to simplify our code.
