Please improve support for copy & pasting from Animate CC!
I use Animate CC to animate, but Illustrator's drawing tools are VASTLY better — so I always design everything in Illustrator then import to Animate CC. Undoubtedly, the Animate CC team is responsible for some of the incompatibility here, and you would know better than I where their work ends and yours begins BUT…
The single most frustrating thing about working with Illustrator and Animate CC is that you can copy/cut vector shapes from Illustrator and paste them INTO Animate CC… but if you try to do the reverse — to, say, edit a shape using Illustrator's tools because they're just that much better — it does this:
Illustrator pastes VECTOR art from Animate CC as an embedded TIFF?!
Maybe this is something that some people actually want? If so, then having a dialog box (like Animate CC does when pasting from Illustrator) to choose how it's imported might be a good solution.
But for my purposes, I just think that vector art should be pasted into Illustrator as vector art in the most editable form possible.

So is this just not going to happen? Is it really that difficult?

Second this, adobe what is the deal here? Animate is vector, why can't I paste from animate into illustrator? The brushes in animate are far superior for actual drawing.

This may be something only the Animate CC team can control, but the ability to copy and paste SVG vector shapes from Animate instead of raster images (even if it loses some effects) would greatly help my Illustrator + Animate heavy workflow
