share song to music timestamp missing in 11.2

I just updated my laptop from Ventura to Sequoia and decided to allow Logic to update as well (so went from Logic 11.0.1 directly to 11.2.2).

So far the only problem I've encountered is that the Share -> Song to Music behavior has changed to no longer include a timestamp in the Track Name.

I can't find a Setting that I can use to revert back to the older behavior. Haven't found any mention of this change in the release notes or any other Apple docs. A recent reddit thread describes the change, but noone has any suggestions for how to change it. Is there a way? I'll log a complaint to Apple if I have to, but would rather just fix this for myself with a Settings or plist edit...?

I requested support on this and have been working with the Logic support team - sent screen shots, a sample logicx project, ran various sanity check scenarios, etc. I just heard back that:

Apple Engineering replied. They stated they have received reports of this symptom and are

investigating. Further updates, if any, may come by way of a software

update, knowledge base article, or software release.

So there's hope...

It's worse than I thought! If I share to music again, it of course re-uses the same title. But worse is that it reuses the same file! So as I save multiple versions of a project, it just keeps overwriting the old one!

there should be a timestamp in the metadata.
