Weird ``` This example shows that the problem exists [as far back as 2.0.0](https://wandbox.org/permlink/4dVDY9sNXJ803jh8). I think the easiest way to fix this is to forbid calling `:initialize_copy` on modules that have children. Another option is to try to decide on the semantics of this. Though I don't think it's worth the effort as this has been broken for a long time and people don't seem to to be using it. Thoughts? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
