 I agree this current idea lacks merit. 
  
 The issue that's always come up with splitting the wreck is deciding 
 on a sensible division point (or points).  Turning & carving each had 
 a fairly clean line of seperation, but no-one's ever been able to come 
 up with any other widely accepted divisions.
