It's old fashioned, prone to pin hole leaks, hard to join and repair in walls and expensive compared to modern pipe like PEX . Traditional plumbers copper because it's very labour intensive.

Depends if the copper tubing is annealed or drawn type as not all copper tubing if bendable
tubing benders are the best used for
The best way to connect PEX tubing to copper piping using a PEX to copper adapter is to first cut the PEX tubing to the desired length and then slide the PEX fitting onto the tubing. Next, use a crimping tool to secure the fitting onto the tubing. Finally, solder the copper adapter onto the copper piping and connect the PEX fitting to the copper adapter.

The popular and proper mounting technique for copper tubing is a copper tubing clamp for the appropriate size. This clamp is made of copper and should be mounted with copper nails. It resembles a piece of tubing of the appropriate size, a half inch wide with two ears on either side with holes for nailing.
Copper tubing is an inanimate object and does not have a sexual orientation. It is made from copper metal and is commonly used in plumbing and heating systems.
Copper tubing is best cut with a straight saw, ideally diamond tipped for the cleanest cut.

To connect PEX tubing to copper pipes, you can use a fitting called a PEX-to-copper adapter. This adapter has a PEX side that can be crimped onto the PEX tubing and a copper side that can be soldered onto the copper pipe. This creates a secure and watertight connection between the two types of pipes.
ACR stands for "Annealed Copper Refrigeration" and refers to a specific type of tubing that is commonly used in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. ACR tubing is made of annealed copper, which is softer and more flexible than rigid copper tubing, making it easier to install and work with in these applications.
that would depend on the temper of the tubing as some types cannot be bent
