No further opinion, leaving it for the potential volunteer.

It's the label for .uno:SplitCell in CalcCommands.xcu and STR_UNDO_REMERGE
(sic!) in sc/inc/globstr.hrc

True, so the only argument is consistency and burden for l10n.

Hi Heiko. Just to be clear, in Writer the terminology is correct: "Split
Cells". This is correct because in Writer, if you add a table you can select
any cell and split it further. And the newly created cells can be split again,
and again...

In Calc it is not possible to Split a cell. If you select a single cell, it is
not possible to split it in two. The only thing that can be done is first to
merge cells and later "Unmerge" them restoring their original situation.

Not a native speaker so with grain of salt: "Split" is more common and natural
than "Unmerge" which implies that something has been merged before. All this
discussion is quite academic to me. But OTOH renaming is pretty easy. However,
where is "Split"?

The command in question is .uno:ToggleMergeCells with the label "Merge and
Center Cells" (center means that regardless the alignment before the content
will be cenetered). It splits/unmerges if applied to a previously merged cell.

We also have a checkbox in the sidebar "[ ] Merge cells" with the tooltip
"Joins the selected cells into one"…

The command .uno:MergeCells (under Format > Merge) just merges and becomes
disabled on previously merged cells. The pendant command is .uno:SplitCell with
the label "Split Cells".

My take => NAB.
