Research direction
Reproduce the failure from the Course unit page by adding a Vimeo video to a Video xblock and duplicating it; compare the result with the Legacy unit page. Start at the Video xblock duplication flow and trace the request that returns 500. Done means duplicating the Vimeo-backed xblock succeeds without a 500 error in both unit page variants.
