To prevent misclicks, we should keep vertical split view tabs stacked vertically when the sidebar is expanded and expand on hover is enabled.
I've attached a video of the issue.

I was about to report the same thing. This hurts the user experience for people that has Vertical Tabs with Hover Expand enabled when using Split View.
