Not combining wide panels anymore? Incredible annoying

As my plead to figure out why there is a tend of cutting wide panels, which is making me incredible furious, did not seem to be seen in the scanlator forum, I would like to ask it again here, because I cannot stand reading new chapters of any manga that has uploads like this.
I hope anyone has any answers or solution for this.
Please check our my original post here:

This is more for a discussion in the scanlator or manga sections of the forums (not entirely sure), Support if for technical issues of the site by itself, which this is directly by the teams working on the fan translation, why they don't want to merge pages, besides in the reader there is setting when using the double page mode, enable offset double page spread, that solves it.

You were already given a proper answer and yet you got another one now after reviving that thread, try the solution you were offered because there's no room for error. Read them please.

Not sure what proper answer you are referring to, the "solution" I got after my reply, did fix the issue somewhat, but not in the sense I meant, it only helps if I want to read every page as a double spread, which is not what I want nor is the root of the problem, which is how the pages are uploaded not the settings on the site, because why would there be option for settings to read either, not for optimal, but for preference.

I read vertical, single page, with wide panels (not being cut), which has been the norm until now.
Read any manga thats completed from last year and back and you won't find wide panels being cut, unless the upload happen recent.
I finished re-reading Tokyo Ghoul, and never ever did they cut wide panels.
I am not sure why I am getting so much hostility over this, seems like reasonable thing to me annoyed about, there are still some mangas that still don't wide panels, though it depends on the website, so i will read those I suppose and hiatus the others who cut or buy physicals copies, or just read what was made before.

Short answer how pagination works here: every image file is a single page and those files are uploaded by users, so if the user uploaded a wide page, a split page or both (it depends on the raws the scanlation is made off) the only method to rearrange that is using the settings the website provides. If you refuse to use the tools MangaDex offers because you only want to use toilet paper reading, you don't even deserve to whine.
