In emacs -Q
(window-line-height)
C-o
C-x C-e
Results in nil.
Interestingly enough, I can specify line numbers (or not) and it will work,
but only as long as (= (point) (point-max))

That's a documented limitation. From the doc string:
Return nil if window display is not up-to-date. In that case, use
`pos-visible-in-window-p' to obtain the information.

You cannot easily predict when the window display will be up-to-date
by the time this function runs.
Closing as not-a-bug.
