Does shallow copying have the same issues? For example, `let foo = { x: 1, ...bar }` just makes a new object with references to bar's members.

Shallow copying will create a new object, and thus, some (small) amount of GC garbage. Less than a deep copy, for sure, which means less frequent pauses, but still garbage to clean up nonetheless.
