I like the idea of `org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift', but wouldn't it
make the parsing of the files slower?

I admit that in the example, this would not have a big impact since
there would be only 9 entries. Nevertheless, I wonder if this can be
considered as a general solution.

In my org files that sum up to 51425 lines (not taking into account the
archives), the creation of the agendas takes minutes to generate. There
are a lot of repeated items with final date¹. I cannot imagine the time
it would take if I would use `org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift'...

My two cents :-)

¹  Like in the case mentioned by Xavier
