In PowerPoint objects can have default properties, like a text block can have a default font and a default font size. When editing such an object one has the option to save the actual properties to become the default properties for all new such objects.
If you copy part of the text of a text block and one pastes this object in a new text block this works fine. However if one pastes the copied object immediately on the slide, PowerPoint costructs a text block for you and inserts the text in it. Unfortunately not with the default or inherited properties.
