Description
I personally never liked this and I didn't see an option to disable it (unless I just missed it of course), the regular splits component doesn't do this (I'm talking about the white rectangle you can see on the subsplit "Bottle")
I assume it was intended to show where you are in the subsplits, hence why I'm suggesting an option to enable/disable it, just had a better idea now that I think about it, why not adding options to customize the look of it instead? like how big it is and of course the color (maybe other possibilities I didn't think of?)

Research direction
Start by locating the subsplit scrolling component that renders the white rectangle shown on “Bottle,” then read how the regular splits component handles its display. Confirm where the rectangle’s size and color are defined and whether an existing settings path can expose them. Done means the behavior can be enabled or disabled and its appearance can be customized without changing unrelated split displays.
