Why is that a bug? You're contrasting with the UI, I guess, but the UI is a program that does all the stuff you're seeing behind the scenes. When you script things, you become the added value for any special things you want a function to perform. To duplicate a set of frames, each must be processed. The thread must be reformed because it is a different thread from the original. It is common to expect scripting operations to mimic the UI, and as long as the action is sufficiently primitive, it usually will, but as soon as you start looking at more complex UI actions, the chances are your script is going to have to mimic the added value.
