So far I don't have the slightest idea what "the problem" is.  I don't
even know which window gets deleted: The one showing the buffer whose
window shall be fit (in which case it would be interesting to know
whether the window shall be shrunk or enlarged), or another window.

It's prevented in `adjust-window-trailing-edge'.  For `enlarge-window'
there's no such rule.  The latter's doc-string clearly states:

   "This function can delete windows if they get too small."
