To be honest, I don't know what that means. IIUC it means that most of
the code doesn't care if posn-window sometimes returns a frame.
It's wrong for posn-window to return a frame. So are there callers that
actually rely on this wrong behavior? Are there callers where returning
nil instead of a frame would be a problem? Are there callers where
signaling an error instead of returning a frame would be a problem?

That's OK, in the sense that we don't care if people's feelings
are hurt. But if it breaks existing packages it's more problematic.
