I understand what you try to achieve. If you simply remove that one split
from your 500 transactions, your books are unbalanced at scale and the
consistency check will tell you about it on each save operation.

Yes, you are right. There is currently no way to remove a single split from
existing transactions at scale. It has to be performed manually transaction
by transaction.

BTW: opening the ledger for a category is no different than opening it for
an account. And if you delete a transaction in a ledger, all splits will be
removed.
That is by design.
