Comment (by alfonsoml):

 From my point of view, splitting any cell is linked to using tables for
 layout, instead of being used properly for data.

 There will be always things that could provide greater flexibility, but
 that they are bad for example for accessibility, and I think that we
 should try to help the user avoid that kind of mistakes, instead of adding
 all kind of things "because they might be useful".

 Splitting a cell means adding a new row, and then merging the cells of
 both rows (excluding the splitted one), and I fail to see how that fits in
 a data table. Merging two header cells into a single one is logical, but
 splitting in order to create a new row is strange.

 And this way we avoid showing two options in the context menus, so usually
 it will be better for the user to find what they need. Less options ->
 less time to read them.
