I don't exactly know the answer to your question, but I never use split
plains. Instead I use polygons for plains which are positive instead of
negative. I never really understood the purpose of the plain function

as a disconnect from the net. This will get

the split plane.

Are you positive it shorted them or did it not connect to
either one? The planes are negative
