Jane023 added a comment. Sorry, I can't think of a case where "these "complainers" would then also have to prevent any and all attempts to merge the articles back into whatever article they were split from". In my mind, we are facilitating the growth of articles with a minimum of interwiki-spagetti-ness, including splitting some very large Wikipedia articles into mobile-friendly shorter articles, not the other way around! Can you please provide a situation where you would want to merge a (hypothetical) "Bonnie" back into a (hypothetical) "Bonnie & Clyde" article? I am still not seeing the benefits of having this feature. I only see reasons against it.
