I would have said the same.  I operate the analog FM birds with a pait of HTs,
built a beam for when the going got rough.

And even on an IC-T81A, which won't do crossband split, I managed to work SO-35
while mobile in traffic, with a bit of fancy button pushing every time I spoke,
to change bands between Tx and Rx.  Clumsy, but it got me QSOs. :)

Takes more than a split to keep me from working something interesting in the
sky. :)
