A short exact sequence splits if its kernel has no maps to the kernel of a right almost-split sequence with the same endpoint.

The Hom-vanishing consequence of AR duality follows directly from the factorization property and realization of degree-one extensions.

Ext vanishing lifts every map through the epimorphism of a short exact sequence.
