Not sure whether this is expected behaviour or not, but just leaving it here to start the debate on whether callbacks like `initialize_dup` are supposed to be called when a module or class is duped (the same happens with `initialize_copy` and `initialize_clone` btw):

    class A
      def initialize_dup(_)
        puts "dup instance"
        super
      end
      def self.initialize_dup(_)
        puts "dup class"
        super
      end
    end

    A.new.dup #=> "dup instance"
    A.dup #=> nothing
