I stand corrected -- Javier points out that Finale appends "copy" to
the name (not the file extension) of backups when they are set to
save in the same folder as the original files.

No, but there are two very easy solutions:
1) Specify a different folder for backups.
OR:
2) Have the application append "bak" BEFORE the file extension.
This is what Finale does with autosaved files (not backups). If the
regular file is MyMasterpiece.mus, the autosave file is
MyMasterpiece asv.mus.
Both of these seem much better than creating a bunch of ".bak"
files that don't automatically open with the correct application
when double-clicked, and don't show up as valid choices in Finale's
"Open" menu unless you force it to by choosing "All Files."
