The former is based on the file system, just copying all the files.
The latter is a full - disk copy, not only copying the files but also copying the FAT table and the boot sector, etc.

discopy directly formats it for you. This command is relatively dangerous (the formats of a and b seem to need to be the same)

copy/?
Copies one or more files to another location.
diskcopy
Copies the contents of one floppy disk to another
The two floppy disks must be of the same type.
You can specify the same drive for drive1 and drive2
You can find it on the internet

There is a big difference. If it is a system disk that can boot the machine, then copying with copy will not succeed. Only diskcopy can be used. Copy allows the destination disk to have bad sectors, while diskcopy does not allow the target disk to have bad sectors.
