The file would never be in the same directory, that wouldn't make any sense.

Example:

I want to copy the file /mnt/g/blender/projects/raider_ship_3000_frame_test_run.blend

And I want to copy the file to my current directory /mnt/backup

I just don't want type the file file name.

1) it's boring.
2) Introducing typos is easy.

And I'm working with a lot of files.
the cp command 'assumes' the current directory to be the destination directory if not specified, I'm just asking if the file name can be assumed to be the same if not specified.
