If you split that decreases payouts ( 17 + 17 < 35 )
If you bet on more than one number you're throwing money away. The ball can only land on 1 number at a time...

Not at all, by betting on more than one number you are increasing your chances of winning. with 38 numbers if you bet on 19 of them you have a 50% chance of winning. Whereas when you bet only 1 number you have a 2.63% chance of winning. Using a double down strategy with a max limit, you can turn a profit from all the simulations I have run.
