‘window-resize’ doesn't split.  If you mean ‘split-window-sensibly’ then
it already compares ‘split-width-threshold’ with the width of the text
area of the window that shall be split.  But all this is very
hypothetical since ‘display-buffer’ will usually display another buffer
in the new window with different local variables and needs.  Neither
‘split-window-sensibly’ nor ‘window-splittable-p’ are up to this task.
