It's still the same function just with different iterators, one
being trivial one being SG-based.

Any algorithm could be converted over to handle non-linear data,
if people cared enough to do it.

If nobody cares then sure you can just do the copy.  The point
is that the copy needs to be in the API layer and not further up,
otherwise you're forcing it on all algorithms, even if it's capable
of handling non-linear input.
