Why does set-default-font affect find-file-other-window?

Question

I recently added a line

(set-default-font "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1")

to the .emacs file. After that, it find-file-other-windowalways opens a new window instead of using existing windows. Why is this going to happen !? How can i fix this?

I don’t understand how all this font-config magic works, so if it’s really obvious, I'm sorry.

Edit: I have a fairly large resolution, and the font size has decreased significantly. Does the find-file-other-windowavailable character space take into account ? Perhaps he will decide that there is a lot of space that he can afford to simply open the windows willingly or not.
