Convert polygons to lines — One multi-segment polyline per polygon

[Bud]

ArcGIS Pro 3.4.2; file geodatabase

The Feature to Line geoprocessing tool seems to take a polygon and convert it to multiple single-segment lines, one line for each segment of the polygon. I would need to use the dissolve tool to reduce the lines down to the number of polygons that I started with.

That's unexpected. Is there a single geoprocessing tool that will convert one polygon to one polyline? What am I missing? I don't want multi-part features.

Use case: Convert polygons to lines so that I can export the features to GPX. GPX doesn't seem to support polygons, only points and lines.

Idea: Convert polygons to polylines (1:1) in a single GP tool

The Polygon To Line tool will create a single line feature for each polygon feature if the Identify and store polygon neighboring information check box is not checked.
