It is a security feature. There are apps that can read the clipboard.

Imagine you copied a sensitive data like credit card number from your notes and you opened an app that reads what is copied in the clipboard. That kind of security breach is what is being prevented by this feature.

Don’t keep your credit card number in notes, or actually anywhere at all, in plain text.

Classic Reddit down voting the comment that should be up voted for awareness.

Reddit gonna reddit. Whenever a comment has more than like 4 downvotes the mob just piles on without reading it.
