[SCCC] OK to work split during IOTA Contest?

I am part of a group planning an IOTA activation during the RSGB IOTA Contest July 30-31.

Given:
The amount of activity in the IOTA contest is relatively light.  The bands are not filled.

The pileups for the IOTA stations are huge, and are the hardest ones to crack of any contest, IMHO.

We will be using low power, probably 50 or 25 watts, due to battery and solar panel limitations (no generators allowed).

Question:
Would it be OK for us to operate split, maybe up 1 for CW, up 2 for SSB?

I am not asking whether or not the contest rules allow splits, because I think it is allowed.  Is it just bad etiquette?

Tnx & 73,

Tim K6GEP
