The outcome of cloneNode(deep) and removeNode(deep) depends on the deep value. When deep is true, the cloneNode method clones a complete subtree rooted at the specified node. When deep is false, only the specified node is duplicated, having no children at all. Similarly, when deep is true, the removeNode method removes a complete subtree rooted at the specified node. When deep is false, just the specified node is removed and all its children become children of their former father's father (former grandfather).
