I reported this in this thread more than a year ago. Sad to see this still on going,

The fact that it split is not an issue since it's all accessible from the same File app.

Just wanted to add that I have been experiencing this issue for years. Is Dropbox even aware that this still ongoing? It’s basically useless for any app that tries to read or write to the Dropbox folder because it’s hit or miss with 50% probability. As others have noted, there are no issues using other storage providers.
