Bug description
When there are four applications, one in each corner of the screen, resizing fails.

Steps to reproduce
To reproduce it, it’s really very easy: you just need to place one application in each corner of the screen and resize whichever one you want, as shown in the video.
Expected behavior
Although, in the issues related to this commit https://github.com/linuxmint/muffin/pull/798, I mentioned that it happened with two windows—which was fixed—it seems to have the same problem, but when the full set of applications is distributed across all four corners of the screen.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure with four applications arranged one in each screen corner, using the linked video and muffin#798 for context. Trace the window-resizing path involved in the earlier two-window fix, then verify that resizing each corner window works without regression.
