Why are the tags imported only as keyword tags?

Hello dear Adobe team. Why are the tags imported only as keyword tags when importing files? For example, if you have assigned a person tag, it will still be passed on as a keyword tag. You should change that.

When Person tags are created using facial recognition, a new .json file is created for each image.  This file contains the information about where in the image the face can be found and who the person is.  When you import the People-tagged file, the .json file is not included with the import, so no face recognition information is available and the file has to be analyzed in the new catalog.  Otherwise, the People tab will show a generic icon instead of a face.

 

However, for those users who are not interested in face recognition, I agree that improvements could be made in the workflow, including allowing the keyword tags to be moved to the People tag hierarchy.

    I have the same problem with location tags and event tags. After the import, he only makes simple keyword tags from it and you also have to reassign these two types in the respective catalog. With individual pictures this may still work, but with 50 pictures this is unnecessary work, I mean.
