Of course, it also would be ok if the splitter would abort with a
message like "unknown filename extension". But the message it is
currently printing when reading a pbf without .osm part ("only
whitespace content allowed before start tag and not \u0 (position:
START_DOCUMENT seen \u0...@1:1)") is not really helpful if the only
problem is the missing '.osm' in the filename.
