I think `tree` is a bit confusing for what is essentially still linear vertical diagram. You can imagine you could have a layout with actual branches.

Agreed. Would renaming it vertical-split or vertical-alternating reduce confusion?

Vertical-alternating seems very clear to me. Also consider allowing vertical-alternating to “compact“. Reducing blank space may be of value for some designs.
