Yes, you could do that to keep things simple and given that the amount at issue is not significant. However, with stock splits, generally you adjust everything back in time as if the stock split preceded the purchase of the stock through the ESPP. To re-calculate everything may involve a lot more work for what it is worth, thus, it is understandable if you decide to use $7 as your compensation income.
