This would only be bad if splitting leaves messages in INBOX.  My
solution to this problem was to ensure that all emails are moved to
other folders when splitting, leaving INBOX empty each time.  For those
emails that you would normally have left in INBOX, create a "general"
folder and move them there.

Alternatively, do the splitting on the server instead of in gnus.

Both approaches can work -- I've done both and, in fact, currently use a
combination of the two.  On the server, I split those emails I would
seldom, if ever, want to look at on a mobile device.  Gnus splits all
others, seen or not.
