If Emacs can confuse me surely you can confuse me more. When I set `window-min-height' to 3 Emacs is allowed to auto-delete windows that are 1 or 2 lines tall. When I set this to 2 Emacs may auto-delete one-line windows only. Hence, if I want to safely prevent auto-deletion I set this to the lowest value that doesn't "lead to bizarre displays" namely 2. Then Emacs will resist any temptations to delete my larger-than-one-line windows and I might live happily. What am I missing?
