Really, the idea that split infinitives are undesirable went out a century ago. It only came into being in the first place when misguided Victorian grammarians tried to force English into the straitjacket of Latin grammar (a very silly idea) and decided that, since infinitives can't be split in Latin (because they're a single word), they shouldn't be split in English either. English is not Latin.
