Much the same as a rig from 50 years ago looks nothing like today -- including
the fact that old rigs had no "split" capability at all and you had to use a
2nd transceiver to accomplish the same thing.Then they added a split button and
operators said "what can I do with this?". And CW split working a DXpedition
or such was born.Then software came along and operators said "what can I do
with this?". And WSJT-X rig split was born.And then operators said "Rig split
doesn't work on my rig with WSJT-X". And WSJT-X Fake It was born.
Let's just agree that things change over time and we need to revisit our
burned-in-the-brain definitions of things.
This hobby is all about learning so let's learn something new....and it's not
that new since WSJT-X has been out for a very long time.
I do realize that many don't understand the nuances of the different modes --
much as I've had to help educate many just about bandwidth alone and have found
trying to educate some about the 1500-2000Hz behavior can take some
considerable effort for it to sink in.

Fair enough, they come with keeping the transmit audio frequency centered in
the passband.
"Use optimal transmit audio frequency" then?
Given the huge and often uninformed debates (not only here), avoiding the
s-word would have a lot of value.

That's not the only thing it does so that's not a good choice. Nobody has

50 years ago has changed and is much more flexible now than before.

I propose that the option "Split operation" in the radio settings of WSJT-X is
renamed "Transmit harmonics prevention" to remove some of the confusion to
those who struggle with digital radio technology.
The three options below should be "I don't care if I QRM the band", "Use VFO
B", and "Use CAT".

There's a saying in the States that "you can't argue with a drunk." A
corollary is that it's a waste of time to one who only wants the world
to tell him he's right.
The story related in your post is perfect!
