Avoid Tiles component to divide image in half with Value 1?

Hi, I want to use the tiles component because it includes the jumble option to make bits of the image jumble and shuffle.

The problem is that if you want to tile the image ONLY vertical or ONLY horizontal is not possible because the tile component the minimum value is 1 and there is no 0 value, and using value 1 will break the image in half in 2 parts as seen in the screenshot

In Tiles Plus happens the same

If as I suppose this is not possible, what alternative can be used?

Using Profile gradients as I have used already before on my other filters for stripes (10 Images or Color Stripes Mix V2.0 Basic Vertical, could be possible, but I do not know how to emulate the jumble option of the tiles component.

I do not need any mortar or edges.

Also alternatively if you can modify the filter that I have already made in the link above to make the jumble and shuffle of the stripes in a good way without overlapping, as it happens in the tiles component, it would be good too.

Thanks very much for any help

Addendum: I made that with a profile gradient which works with square images but not so much with images that aren't squares unless you're looking to make a texture.

To make this work with not-square ratio images, use the free gradient and set the XY anchor to Image Bounds.
