Added a slug area in document setup
In InDesign's document setup, there are Slug settings in addition to Bleed.

There is no a slug area in Illustrator. As a result, users are stacking another large artboard underneath the artboard as an alternative to a slug area. This situation should be remedied by adding Slug settings.
InDesignのドキュメント設定には、裁ち落としに加えて印刷可能領域の設定があります。
Illustratorには印刷可能領域の設定がありません。そのためユーザーはかわりに別の大きなサイズのアートボードを下に重ねています。この現状は印刷可能領域の設定を追加することで改善されなければいけません。

This isn't the perfect solution, but I often add slugs/notes to Illustrator documents by adding text outside of the artboard. They don't print and yet I can access/see the information when I open the document.
I wish there was a slug feature in Illustrator!!

Thanks for answers.

I wonder how this quite new request was able to gain that much upvote!
Regarding the problem, I do myself publishing in Ai, so sure, slug is needed. -

Some users are expanding a bleed area to maintain the correct artboard size. They are unavoidably doing this, knowing that it is bad know-how. Being able to set up a slug area will help them.

The only way to maintain the correct artboard size in Illustrator is to stack other artboard.
With a slug area like InDesign, there is no need to stack artboards.
