Additionally, the algorithm in the method itself was already hard to understand and difficult to adapt. I therefore re-implemented it in a separate class `CloneTemplateAssertionPredicateBool` together with some helper classes like `DFSNodeStack`. To use it, I've added a `TemplateAssertionPredicateBool` class that offers three cloning possibilities:

Looks reasonable to me.
