If a UI designer has to think about usability while creating an interface, why separate into UI\UX?

Or is UI included in UX and focused on the outside of the design (interface) and UX on the inside (processes)?

I will confuse you even more by saying that UX (user experience, emotions when the user is pleased) is not the same as usability (when the user is comfortable). A good designer must understand something in both, as if it has always been so. And about the names - it's fashion. Designers now call themselves UI/UX, admins in deer sweaters call themselves DevOps, bootstrap coders call themselves frontend developers, and dudes writing in erlang are simply kings. And no one cares why these words were invented - in this situation they just show "look how cool I am."
In large companies, in theorythere must be a division of labor. Each of these professions is already divided into narrower specializations, so in design one person will already think about how it will look, the second - how it will be convenient, and the third will draw beautiful animations for user interaction.

First of all, by the fact that UX extends beyond the competence of the designer. This includes technical support, website performance, competent/interesting/useful content, customer service, policies, terms of use, etc. The logic of transitions within the site, the location of controls, the accessibility and responsiveness of the interface, and other interface gadgets are just a part of UX (which is sometimes thought out first, and then plastered with cosmetics, but not always).

these are different stages of design-design-engineering - they can be performed by one or several people
the UX stage may be absent if, for example, a ready-made template is used

In general, I figured out a little about this topic, and, summing up everything I read, I can say that:
In short: UX is far from the convenience of the interface.
UX is user experience. It includes all processes of user interaction (from UI to contacting technical support) with a particular product or company/brand as a whole. UX is the sum of what a user experiences in an interaction. UX defines UI, style, and processes. UX is culturally sensitive (UI can do this too, but to a much lesser extent), based on audience research (again, decisions in UI can also be based on this, but in UX it matters much more).
UX is closer to strategy. UX is a set of characteristics for processes and entities.
UI - user interface. It is part of UX. UI is how the user interacts with the product. UI is architecture, interface. UI is defined by UX. UI is closer to tactics. UI is an entity.
Usability is a characteristic of UI, and it is in both areas at the same time.

UX is not UI
A more detailed and understandable answer than I have not read here. Recommend.
