It’s up to the artist to decide whether to splice or not as well as to admit whether they did so or not. For transparency, naturally it’s better to be upfront about it if you do, and worse if you say it’s custom when splicing is clearly noticeable.
If the commissioner decides to go through it, despite being aware that it’s spliced, I don’t think this concerns other people either.
People can frown upon those if they want to, but it would only become a matter of rules if the portraits used for splicing were explicitly not F2E.
And we could get philosophical about it. Who’s to say that this hasn’t been happening even in custom commissions, but it was just edited over? What is “clearly” spliced specifically? How would that be enforced?

I second this, because on my experience I do touchup commissions and sometimes I had to edit F2E portraits. In the end, it’s all between the artist and the commissioner.

But then back again at this…

Am I missing something here or what? Is this kind of commission “illegal” or no?

I can’t really say, but if Alice already told the commissioner about the spliced part; then it’s fine. Otherwise then… well. She can sort it out herself.
BUT even then, using splices as it is for a commission? That’s a low blow.
