Split Screen ( a dying practice?)

Depends if you count it as an actual benefit. Plenty prefer to game on their own TV and console. For me, if I had the choice of my friend coming around or us playing online, I'd say let's play online because split screen doesn't do it for me anymore. To each to their own.

I do not care is not the same as nobody cares. I don't care for narrative only games (aka Walking Simulator, the Heavy Rains or what you have), so I should conclude they don't need to exist?

That is not what is being said. That is also a very poor rebuttal. 

Having the option for something superior and choosing to opt for the inferior way of playing a MP game is what the argument is about. It's a feature only a small minority use, it's not worth delaying a game indefinitely for. 

When BG3 releases on the X/S, the masses are not going to care about the split screen mode. Majority play BG3 for the single player campaign however they still have the option for MP via Online. This is literally a nothing burger.

If it means that much to you and you own a S, well thank the lord your file is crossed saved, so trade in the S and get the X and your problem has been solved.
