In my init file I have
(defun reload () "Reloads .emacs interactively."
(interactive)
(load "~/.emacs"))
The problem is that I also have
(split-window-horizontally)
As things now stand, a reload splits current window so that I end up
with three. I'd like to have reload instead preserve the two window
split.

Wrap it with save-window-excursion:
(save-window-excursion
(load "~/.emacs"))
You should read the caveats in

Thanks, Barry, that was the answer I needed.
In case anyone's following this, there was a typo in the URL you
provided. With spelling of Configurations corrected and pehaps a more
specific location, it would be:
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Window-Configurations.html#Window-Configurations

There was no typo when I posted it. Looks like the news->mail gateway
added a newline when it wrapped it. AFAIK, MT-NW doesn't do this when
sending, because I've never had a problem with long URLs before.

you could wrap that into :
(unless (window-parent)
(split-window-horizontally))
