I see, I don't quite get how your algorithim works, so I'll just use the
reverse list and split at root window approach which also works. They
should have same result, but this one will have less moving parts.

Flipping windows won't change the size using the current approach, but
the window will be split to match it's old height, idk if that will give
bug or not. I would rather it just simply doesn't work with fied
windows, instead of confusing the user who probably doesnt even know
emacs has fixed windows.

wdym by the last sentence?
Using my approach, I will anyways be able to modify the return value of
window-pixel-sizes while checking for fixed size windows, but it
probably won't be in alist form. This will allow me to lose the helper
functions like window-alist-parent.
Also, the only thing I'm checking for is if a window is atomic and fixed
size, right?
to check the fixed size, I'll just use window-fixed-size-p, and to check
if atomic (window-parameter window 'window-atom).
I think the window atomic facility should hve more interactive commands,
can imagine it being quite useful.
