The rules are technically correct that "a copy of a spell isn't cast," because casting is the process by which a "card" (in hand, exile, the graveyard, or the command zone) becomes a "spell" (on the stack). Players often use "spell" and "nonland card that isn't currently on the battlefield as a permanent" interchangeably informally, but the rules distinguish the two. | |

It has to do with where the card being copied is - if you copy a spell on the stack the copy appears on the stack without being cast, but if you copy a card in exile the copy must be cast to move from exile to the stack | |
