I have 1918 space at home, that is used at work. My VPN works. It is
common knowledge that split-tunneling is detrimental to network security
since so many functions rely (properly or not) on the containment to be
close to perfect.

No. To me, ultimately, "private" equals an instance of routing policy,
ie. AS number. The customer is using 1918 space in spite of not having
an AS number (if they have one, they probably got fries with that and
have a /24 from swampspace, case closed) and thus must adapt to the
provider routing scheme. It MIGHT work with NAT. But not more than that.
