In the outliner, viewing Scenes, opening the right-click menu for a collection reveals some tools that don’t do what you expect
“Duplicate Collection” and “Duplicate Linked” are expected (imo) to behave like SHIFT+D and ALT+D respectively, duplicating the collection and potentially linking the datablocks to the original
Instead they respond with “Error: no active collection” even though you presumably JUST selected a collection to do this
“Copy” and “Paste” one would expect to be able to copy the collection and be able to paste it into another scene for example
Instead these operations copy only the datablocks… or something? I’m honestly not even sure what does or doesn’t happen when I do this.

Clik here to view.
SOLUTION
Ensure that Duplicate always Duplicates whatever you just clicked on, and Copy+Paste allows you to Copy+Paste whatever you just clicked on, not just the invisible datablocks within.
