missing split point after kind '{kind}:'

Error message

missing split point after kind '{kind}:'

What it means

parse_split_point parses strings like 'kind:value'; after a recognized kind prefix, the remainder did not end at a valid split point boundary — the message names the kind whose value is malformed. The split-point specification on the CLI/config is the input at fault.

Solutions

1. Fix the split point syntax, e.g. 'index:3' or 'fraction:0.5' with valid numbers
2. Check for trailing characters after the value
