With emacs -Q do

M-: (pop-to-buffer "*Messages*")
C-x w 3

Either nothing or what 'split-window' says in that case: That the new
window shows the buffer of the window selected on the frame containing
the window that was split.

Functions like 'split-window-below' were historically intended for
interactive use only.  The Elisp manual said about them

    For interactive use, Emacs provides two commands which always split
    the selected window.

which apparently is no longer true.
