It looks like you may be trying to have multiple simultaneous quick-help buffers active at once? History with emacs suggests that that avenue tends to be confusing and cumbersome, and _generally_ not fruitful. (As one big concrete example, I spent years working with "computer help" at my university where Emacs was the default editor (in the 90s), and some form of "My window is cut in half; how do I get it all back?" was frequently the most common editor question.)
