QM foundation discussion banned; no-cloning theorem

According to HarvardX: EMC2x The Einstein Revolution:

The principal physics journal in the United States, Physical Review, for a time more or less banned discussion of the foundations of quantum mechanics. [hyperbole?]

Also, I've now heard of the no-cloning theorem which states it is impossible to create an identical copy of an arbitrary unknown quantum state(1982) Supposedly it's comparable in importance to the uncertainty principle.
