Except for debug insns if the mode is the same and i2dest doesn't appear in
i2set nor i3set nor anything in between, why not?
As for debug insns, as I said earlier, the current code is reusing i2dest for
the splitting found by find_split_point.

Sure, combining those 2 insns can't be sucessful, otherwise it would have
matched earlier.  But they can be combined with other insns, say the first of
those 2 split insns being i0 and second i1 combined into some other i3 and i2,
or perhaps just split insns i1 and i2 combined into some other i3.
