Description
Not sure about other platforms, but if I create the main window with less than 1512px of width, the second windows go to the specified monitor, if the width is 1513 or more, the second window goes to the same window.
there is a test here
https://github.com/dimitre/ofTests/tree/main/monitor
and it is not happening on my glfw0 branch

Research direction
Start with the linked monitor test and the ofGLFWWindow entry point, reproducing the behavior with main-window widths below and above 1512px on macOS. Done means the second window goes to the specified monitor regardless of the main window size, matching the behavior reported on the glfw0 branch.
