Do black holes split into smaller black holes?

Physicists are revisiting whether black holes can fragment into smaller ones. The question touches on thermodynamics of black holes, which lose entropy when they split, making the process forbidden under classical theory but debated in quantum gravity contexts. It is a theoretical discussion about the fundamental physics of black holes rather than an observed event, and the specific trigger for renewed interest is unclear.
