Once on Settings: Proposal Phase, you can select either the Duplicate option for a given template. Alternatively, click the + New Template option in the upper right. This will let you select a template to copy and modify for the new template or create a New Template.

What are good rules of thumb for when to duplicate a proposal template?

Duplicate proposal templates to protect live versions and archive proposals to keep the proposal list clean of old versions. 

Any changes made to existing templates are live and will also impact proposals already sent out. This means you should always duplicate any template you want to modify as a starting point rather than editing it directly, unless the change is to fix a typo. Once desired changes have been made, you can archive the old template.
