The content window looks odd because on the left we have the associations tab but on the right we dont

Issue 2.
Open an article that has an association and select the associated language
Now select the button Copy Reference To Target
Expected behaviour
Article content is copied from reference to target
Actual behaviour
A NEW article is created AND the new article does not have the same status as the reference article

Maybe copy to target shouldn't be there if you have selected already an existing item. It doesn't make that much sense to me to overwrite an already existing item with an existing one. But maybe I miss the obvious.
You are correct. Let's work on this.

Thanks for the report.

Issue 1: This looks OK to me. After saving Reference the article will be associated (if it was not already).
Improvement could be to display its Associations tab as readonly.
I confirm issue 2:
The issue comes imho from the fact that Copy Reference to Target ALSO copies (with increment) the title and the alias and the category, therefore it saves a new article.
In fact it always uses
