The goal of writing tests is to test the operator not just setup of window
data manager.
For a trivial improvement, that is, to avoid instantiating objects in the
logical instance, this change now doesn't execute setup of the operator which
is a much bigger problem.
In future if something is added to splitter setup, the test will never
execute it and result in bugs.
Also, there are multiple of operators in library which instantiate field
that are transient when the operator is constructed. Are you going to change
all of them?
