Why can't we duplicate Filters?

Description - We can duplicate modules in Fusion. It's frustrating that we cannot do the same with filters.

Why is this feature important to you - We all know what it's like when you're working on a Scenario and then you realize you need a filter to be on the other side of a module. Unfortunately, there isn't a way to move this like a module. Instead, you have to rebuild it. And, depending upon the complexity of the filter, it can be a pain. (I'm encountering this right now.) 

How would you like the feature to work - Just like you can clone a module, you should be able to copy/paste a filter. 

Current Behaviour - It doesn't do that and it's extremely annoying.

If you're able to install the Fusion devtool at https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/workfront/using/adobe-workfront-fusion/scenarios-in-fusion/debug-scenarios-with-dev-tool.html?lang=en you'll see in the Tools there's the ability to copy filters

@johnjosullivan, the copy module also copies the filters if that is easier.
