It might be better to use (not (window-full-width-p window)) here.
Comparing `frame-width' and `window-width' is not always reliable.

IIUC you mostly use a

  (delete-other-windows)
  (split-window-vertically)
  (org-switch-to-buffer-other-window ...)

paradigm which avoids most of the pitfalls raised by Juri.  So I think
you are not really bothered by the problems discussed here.
