Spreading an instance of a class does not duplicate the method.

ts

class Greeter {
  greeting: string;
 
  constructor(message: string) {
    this.greeting = message;
  }
 
  greet() {
    return "Hello, " + this.greeting;
  }
}
 
const x: Greeter = new Greeter("world");
const y: Greeter = { ...x };
// Property 'greet' is missing in type '{ greeting: string; }' but required in type 'Greeter'.

TypeScript
