The on where I showed in earlier screenshot, where the parent window
being split gets messed up.

Ok, I'll first try to get the other functions working with the existing
code, and if it starts going south I'll start from scratch.

What's an atomic window? I read the manual but still couldn't understand

Highly unlikley, I tried it with very small splits and it worked.

What is the expected thing to happen in fixed size windows?

ngl, when you say it like that it sounds like I am making food for a kim
