The main thing I disliked is that it kinda of removed any chance of us getting a "Spock is split into his human and vulcan halves by a transporter accident and they totally don't get along with each other" episode down the line.

They already did that with B'Elanna. Why retread old ground?

Because they can always do it better the second time. Like Time Squared and Cause and Effect are both time loop episodes, but Cause and Effect is way better.

I sort of kept thinking this was kind of like a reverse Tuvix.

Ok, bit they could still do a transporter accident where Spock gets merged into one being with, say, an annoying alien from the Delta quadrant.
