And this is probably why all over the code we have the idiom of
dup()ing pointer-to-struct members instead of dup()ing pointer
members inside inline struct members when dup()ing a struct.

Which I just blindly followed without knowing the reasons behind it.
Thanks for pointing this out Bert, I now understand why it's done this way.
