Expected behavior
I would like to have a navigation link that operates like a split button. This way you can have a link to a main landing page and then the sub landing pages would be triggered on the click of the down carat.
Actual behavior The only option provided is a traditional dropdown nav-link
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.) see MDB source code.

You can do that with regular split button: https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/standard/components/dropdowns/#section-split-button

Correct, but then the styling is not the same as your other normal navigational links. I was wondering if there was a way to fit it in naturally and not have it look so different.
My example is that I am building a website for a commercial painting company. I want the main link to be for commercial painting, and then the drop arrow would be for the sub-pages exterior commercial painting, interior commercial painting, and industrial commercial painting.
As of right now, there is no way to make the button look right or have the functionality I am looking for without it wrapping two lines or having clearly different styling

Ok, you have to basically change the classes but use the split dropdown to your advantage like this
" class="nav-link shadow-0">Action Toggle Dropdown
That did it
