Automatic conversion of QList<QString> is not a JS array of strings?

Hi.
I wish to set the model of a ListView to a QList<QString> passed from C++ via a Q_INVOKABLE function call.

According to the Qt docs, the conversion from QList<QString> to a JavaScript array is automatic.

Yet, the view does not show the data. If I set the model directly in QML to a JS string array with exactly the same strings however it works.
Converting it explictly to a JS array with Array.from() also works.

    property var names: []

    Component.onCompleted: {
        names = um.getNames()

        //console.debug(names) //<-- shows [Name1,Name2]

        //view.model = ["Name1", "Name2"]      //<-- WORKS
        //view.model = [names[0], names[1]]   //<-- WORKS
        //view.model = Array.from(names)         //<-- WORKS

        view.model = names // <-- DOES NOT WORK ??
   }

What am I missing here? Is the implicit conversion done by the QML engine of a QList<QString> not a normal JS array of strings?

Have you tried with QStringList?

@GrecKo
QStringList works without conversion to Array. So only the QList<QString> conversion is not transparent.

Thanks.
