Hmm I see where you’re coming from since it’s specifying ‘this spell’, but if the copy becomes a copy of the spell on the stack, shouldn’t that characteristic be copied as well?
Since literally, ‘this spell’ is the card on the stack. I’ve copied that spell as it’s been prepared on the stack, not the spell. Since that spell was cast from exile and is simply waiting to be cast, it wouldn’t make sense for the copy to technically become a differently acting card (without specifications like new targets etc.)
Is there some way to contact a judge? I’d love to clarify this 100% for everyone, because I wouldn’t enjoy an ambiguous yes either. The rules aren’t clear and there isn’t much discussion on it oddly enough.
Edit2: I found some judge chat?

The copy wasn’t cast at all, much less cast from exile, so it only deals 2 damage
Honestly not satisfying as I don’t understand at all still, but a judge is a judge. I’ll edit the above.
