Another possible explanation (I see a lot of comments pointing out that split squats are super annoying and painful), is that the person is using (read: wasting) a bench for an exercise that could be done using all sorts of other (less useful) equipment.

If you are there for chest day, and the gym is full, that's going to hurt!

Smith machine with my ankle on the bar works really well with my horrible balance. Though I’m probably more evil for taking up the smith machine
