That's no recipe, at least not with emacs -Q. With emacs -Q this just
makes my frame much larger than my display. Please try to give me a
recipe with emacs -Q. Something's at work here which I don't understand
yet.

This contradicts your scenario where you say that the help buffer reuses
an already existing window.

It's just that I don't know _why_ a reused window would be expanded.
Can you point me to where in the code this expansion takes place?
