Default Scientists teleport two different objects

I don't think so; I don't see how it would. A very specific quantum
state is transfered; lots of other things aren't transfered. The particle
doesn't really "look the same" classically at all, naict. So depends
on what you're attempting to copy; it doesn't seem applicable to copying,
say, apples or bicycles.
