This class is just instantiated as scopes for MethodReferenceExpr nodes to encapsulate Types.
In World::greet the ClassOrInterfaceType "World" is wrapped in a TypeExpr before it is set as the scope of the MethodReferenceExpr.

cloneback to summary
public TypeExpr clone()

Overrides com.github.javaparser.ast.expr.Expression.clone.

Doc from java.lang.Object.clone.

Creates and returns a copy of this object. The precise meaning of "copy" may depend on the class of the object. The general intent is that, for any object x, the expression: 

x.clone() != x
will be true, and that the expression: 
x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()
will be true, but these are not absolute requirements. While it is typically the case that: 
x.clone().equals(x)
will be true, this is not an absolute requirement.

By convention, the returned object should be obtained by calling super.clone. If a class and all of its superclasses (except Object) obey this convention, it will be the case that x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass().

By convention, the object returned by this method should be independent of this object (which is being cloned). To achieve this independence, it may be necessary to modify one or more fields of the object returned by super.clone before returning it. Typically, this means copying any mutable objects that comprise the internal "deep structure" of the object being cloned and replacing the references to these objects with references to the copies. If a class contains only primitive fields or references to immutable objects, then it is usually the case that no fields in the object returned by super.clone need to be modified.

Returns:TypeExpr

a clone of this instance.
