Trying to do (setq display-buffer-fallback-action nil)
and `M-x compile RET' goes to re-arrange the wrong window
(that displays "*scratch*" in `emacs -Q') because the nil WINDOW arg
of `set-window-start' defaults to the selected window, so yes,
a nil value is not a good thing to return from display-buffer.

Trying to use an internal window:
(add-to-list 'display-buffer-alist '("\\*compilation\\*" display-buffer-ignore (nil)))
(defun display-buffer-ignore (&rest _ignore) (frame-root-window))
fails with `(wrong-type-argument window-live-p #<window 0x286f258>)',
so this is not possible to do without changes to the window framework
to add a new window type for live hidden windows.
