Vista - Copy|Move-ItemProperty: different meaning of -Name: why?

From help:
Copy-ItemProperty -name <string>
Move-ItemProperty -name <string[]>

It seems to me Copy and Move parameters should be as much similar as
possible. Variant with <string[]> looks more practically useful.

Any remarks?

Possible it's a typo in the help file? Both parms accept pipeline input,
which sort of implies an array/collection. Wouldn't be the first help file
typo, in any event.

No, unfortunately it is not a typo in the help file:

Example a1: is a PSDrive in the Registry:

Copy-ItemProperty fails:

> Copy-ItemProperty . -Name Command0,HotKey -Dest a1:\Item1
Copy-ItemProperty : Cannot convert 'System.Object[]' to the type
'System.String' required by parameter 'Name'. Specified method is not
supported.
At line:1 char:26
+ Copy-ItemProperty . -Name <<<< Command0,HotKey -Dest a1:\Item1

But Move-ItemProperty with the same parameters succeeds:

> Move-ItemProperty . -Name Command0,HotKey -Dest a1:\Item1
