Got it.

At one point in the history of the spec, CryptoKeyPair objects were their own interface, therefore their own explicit object type.

Now they're just an object dictionary (https://w3c.github.io/webcrypto/Overview.html#keypair), which means they are an "Object", which means they are structured cloneable
