I would have been happy a few times if it was possible not only to “copy” a website but to create a real duplicate.  
By this I mean that all contact data, media data and also the corresponding links are duplicated as well.

Hi Martin!

Thanks for asking.  
Creating a duplicate of a website makes sense for several reasons:

- If you want to develop a website further - independently from the live website.
- When you want to create a copy of the website as a backup.

I thought that cloning the website would copy everything.

Not yet 🙂 The cloning process just creates links to the media.
