Horcruxes are worse than just dividing the soul. It’s premeditated murder (there’s a spell that needs to be said before avada kedavra) with the intention of a second one. In order for the horcrux to be of any use, the soul entrapped in the item must take the life of another person. The diary tried sapping Ginny’s life to come back to life. A horcrux can only be made by someone with no regard for human life.
