Why OS copy of control file won't work?

Guang,
Under normal circumstances yes, but the control file has to be a "alter
database backup controlfile . . .", not a OS copy.

Subject: RE: Hot Backup Theory Revisited:
I am trying to understand:
Is it true that if the copy of control file (just an OS copy) is done AFTER issuing
ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG CURRENT; then no earlier (than the log switch) archive log is needed? We still need the archive logs generated during tablespace backup process.
