The backtrace shows that this is the reason for signaling the error:

  split-window(#<window 8 on Palette (Hue x Saturation)> 100 t)

This requests to split an 80-column window while leaving the original
window 100 columns, which is clearly impossible.  So why is this a
bug in Emacs and not in palette.el?
