It all depends on the size of your Vim window/terminal and Vim will then
try to open as many windows as possible so that
'winminheight'/'winminwidth' option for each window is fulfilled. If the
space is not enough, it won't create more windows. So try to reduce the
'winminwidth'/'winminheight' option
