flexibleCopyalways visited parents before children, but it visitedvector children in reverse order:
The order of children happened to not matter in any user of this code,
and that's just what you get when you iterate over children in a vector
and push them to a stack before visiting them, so this odd ordering
was not noticed.
For a new user I will introduce soon, however, it would be nice to have
the normal pre-order:
(2 & 3 swapped).
This cannot be tested in the current code as it is NFC, but the later PR
will depend on it and test it heavily.
