I would say that removing URL is also bad UI - if user sees that URL changes with navigation, then it is possible to guess that it can be copied and pasted to give a link for current page.
If the URL bar would offer full URL for copy/paste, but show only the domain, then the feature of full URL copy/paste is hidden.

Depends on the site.” Copy and paste is the lowest common denominator of IPC.
