It's very unprofessional that one we hit Release to Layers, the layers name change to Layer 1, 2.

 

Professional people have put it time to actually name the layers, and when we wanna prepare the file to animate for After Effects, it changes

 

SO UNPROFESSIONAL ADOBE

Release to Layers should inherit custom names from original objects – Adobe Illustrator
