I agree. I use WSJT-X mostly on 6M during the summer and 160M during the
winter. On 6M, I can't use the WSJT-X split mode, because it takes over
my second VFO, preventing me from working back and forth from WSJT-X on
one VFO (and RX) and CW on the low end of the band.
The split mode in WSJT-X is simply a crutch for those who don't know (or
don't care) how to set audio levels so that distortion is not produced
in the audio chain. The link below includes simple procedures for
getting those settings right. It applies to all sorts of
computer-to-rig audio connections, not only those with a USB interface.

BTW -- a decent USB interface can GREATLY improve decoding of weak
signals. That link describes my testing that clearly shows that.

Why split? The K3S should be in Data A mode and should switch to Data
when you allow WSJT-X to connect.
