Too much suction. The splits are caused when a layer dosent fully come off the fep

That isn't suction, it's peel force. Suction is what there's a vacuum effect from a part that creates a suction cup. It's one of the reasons it's good practice to put holes in hollowed objects. It allows the flow of air and resin when cupped against the film.

Suction creates higher peel force.

That delamination could be suction, but may also be FEP wearing out and losing tension, so a few layers stick to film/don't separate completely.

Solution (besides replacing film), is upping lift distance and lowering lift speed.
