Column pinning inconsistence

Column pinning inconsistency

I'm trying to implement stickiness of table columns. Something similar to https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-table-sticky but for the current version.

I was trying to define position: sticky and manipulate left and right properties based on that where given column is placed.

But it seems like if I split one section into two (name section on the screenshot) I cannot "set" "Name" section to the right because it has ALWAYS set "left", even if I split that into two sides.

Why is that?

Is there other option to have "sticky" functionality? Like here: https://codesandbox.io/s/sweet-cori-gl81g

Your minimal, reproducible example

https://tanstack.com/table/v8/docs/examples/react/column-pinning

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to docs page
2. Click on "Last Name" right arrow.
3. Look at the "Name" section on the right, it has arrow like it was pinned to the left, but is on the right.

Expected behavior

I expect each section, even if its the same, should have own positioning ('left', 'right'). Currently one section has only one positioning, even if its split.

How often does this bug happen?
