A helicopter cockpit emergency egress door or window that could to be pulled in? Where are you going to put the darn thing?
Kinda counter intuitive.
Jettison one in forward flight? Regardless of which side the tail rotor is on stranger still.

What I took from the wording is there might have been a bit of rough treatment of said window in the process of getting some beneficial use of the opening in clearing out the smoke and fumes.
Which....seems very reasonable and understandable if the window was extremely small and wanted enlarging.
