FWIW, Reroute Email uses this pattern, as do a bunch of commerce module -- a global "enable" config that can act as a kill switch. It's a really handy pattern.
Config Split introduces a ton of complexity and confusion to managing configuration -- which means opportunities to make mistakes. We highly prefer a global config with specific environment overrides -- this allows us to have sane settings in the database for all dev environments, and hard-code specific overrides for production in a production-specific environment file.
Even better is being able to set these with environment variables, but that's an entirely different topic...
