Hi Steven

Thanks for checking out all the recommended options. I tried to reproduce the error and was not successful. Using both channel preview and current I was able to create a shallow clone of a table. However the channel version for me is 2024.25.
So it might be a hiccup in the 2024.15 preview, but it is resolved in the 2024.25 which soon should be in your region. 
Thanks for flagging this up.
