Duplicate column feature name change in Magic ETL

The current duplicate column title is a bit confusing. I thought it would create another similar duplicate column like the existing one. However, it only replaces the values of an existing column. It would be nice if you could also allow someone to create a duplicate column without affecting the existing columns.

    You can use the formula tile to 'duplicate' an existing column by adding a reference to the original column in the formula. If you give it a unique name it will create a copy, if you use an existing column name it will override the values in that column (like the duplicate column tile).

    I agree though that 'duplicate column' doesn't read as 'duplicate values into a different, existing column.' That is good feedback.
