While this is not an issue at all, quite simple for southern Africa (105 obs) - I am uncertain as to the validity of the swap in the rest of the world (408 obs).
The issue though is that this has been incorrectly formulated and the subpsecies belong in the output taxon
unknown
Yes

@tonyrebelo Hi there, I differ from this change because of the following.
Gazania is a complex genus, and therefore most forms should be ascribed to Gazania × splendens, since we do not know the origin of these specimens on this side of the world. A while ago I unified G. splendens with G. rigens because that is how The Plant List shows it in its database, but in POWO they are different things. In fact, in the latter G. splendes is = Gazania × splendens, which is correct for these reasons:
The cultivated plants come from the horticultural adaptation of different native South African species, their hybridization in different parts of the globe, and the corresponding segregation and selection of cultivars.
Much of what is commercialized corresponds to hybrid forms that have been commercialized under the name of Gazania × splendens, a complex polyhybrid whose genesis has involved numerous varieties, resulting in an enormous variety of forms with different color patterns.
Unintended disagreements occur when a parent (B) is
thinned by swapping a child (E) to another part of the
taxonomic tree, resulting in existing IDs of the parent being interpreted
as disagreements with existing IDs of the swapped child.
Identification
ID 2 of taxon E will be an unintended disagreement with ID 1 of taxon B after the taxon swap
If thinning a parent results in more than 10 unintended disagreements, you
should split the parent after swapping the child to replace existing IDs
of the parent (B) with IDs that don't disagree.
