Will Copy a Bootable USB Drive Create a Duplicate Bootable USB?

Will a bootable USB device make a duplicate if I copy it to another USB? Although it seems like a silly question, according to a Google search, data on a bootable drive cannot be copied or pasted to another USB device. However, why wouldn't it function even if we could replicate it? 

Yes, if done correctly, copying a bootable USB drive to another USB will create a duplicate bootable drive. The key is to ensure that all the necessary files and settings are copied correctly to the new USB drive.

How can I ensure a successful bootable USB copy from one device to another? The answer is to clone, that is, copy the bootable USB from one device to another to create a 1-to-1 copy.
