jj commit -i vs. jj split -i

[WolfgangSteiner]

I am trying to understand if there are any meaningful differences between jj commit -i and jj split -i in order to break the current change into several commits.

The help of jj commit -i says:
-i, --interactive Interactively choose which changes to include in the first commit

vs. jj split -i:
-i, --interactive Interactively choose which parts to split. This is the default if no paths are provided

In my current understanding, these two commands are identical for the task. Are there any situations when to prefer one over the other?

I think they are practically equivalent for splitting the working-copy commit (jj split can be used on any commit but jj commit is specifically for the working-copy commit). jj commit -i exists partly to help feel git and hg users feel more at home.
