I see. I thought there was some black magic involved when I read your
first post ;-)

If you set `split-width-threshold' to zero and `split-height-threshold'
to nil you should get the behavior you want.

You should be able to simplify your code by using idioms from the below.
(defun th/split-window-sensibly (_window)
(let ((root (frame-root-window))
(window-combination-resize 'resize))
(cond
((>= (/ (window-total-width root) (window-combinations root t)) 80)
(split-window (window-last-child root) nil 'right))
((>= (/ (window-total-height root) (window-combinations root)) 40)
(split-window (window-last-child root) nil 'below))
(t
(split-window-sensibly window)))))
