I have observed that copy/paste _reproducible_ stops working after
renames.

Try this:
1. Open a folder/dir with subfolders/subdirs
2. Expand one of the subfolders, not by clicking/entering it, but by clicking the triangle tree symbol to "expand" next to the dir
3. The subdir's files are revealed
4. Rename one of the files in this subdir tree, and choose a name that triggers a re-ordering of the listed files in this subdir
5. Select some files in this subdir and press CTRL+C
6. The files won't get "selected"/"greyed", and paste'ing is not possible anymore for this session of Nautilus
