Hi Steven,
Yes, this is accurate - SplitView can't be nested inside a View. You can directly use flexbox styling or reuse the SplitView styling within a View, but this is not a real SplitView and you can't navigate Views inside it. There are some other limitations too, thus this use case is not officially supported. Check
my last answer in this thread for more information and a sample.
Kind regards,
