This is the norm for computers.  Copying and erasing are separate atomic
actions.  Copying is usually sufficient, and in case of error, having a
copy on both devices is almost always superior to failing to copy then
proceeding with the delete so you have no copies.  So, erasing is usually
not done as part of copying.
