A splitter that produces more downforce will need to be offset with something else in the rear to maintain an aerodynamic balance of ~50/50.
The eight vanes underneath the splitter were added to create additional downforce. Could you remove two vanes, create less downforce at the front, and equal out the balance between front and rear?

If you were driving an oval track, could you move the vanes towards one side to create additional downforce on a specific corner of the vehicle? Just curious...
