A DXF file is natively (by default) 2D whether it is created in AutoCAD or any other CAD program, it is a 2D file. Layer names are just "names" (All CAD programs whether 2D or 3D) have layers with names. I do not think you are missing anything other than 2D is 2D and 3D is native to Chief Architect Inc software.
Whereas Chief Inc software deals with both 2D and 3D and AutoCAD natively does not deal with 3D (only 2D).
I am completely unfamiliar with AutoCAD Architecture and its capabilities but I do know that Home Designer Pro titles export only 2D files.
