It's very annoying.

I think there's some workaround (by converting your file from epub to epub in Calibre and ticking one specific setting in Calibre), but I've forgotten what it was and it's not easy to find on this forum. And besides, it's rather a hassle to have to convert all your books before you put them on the device.
When I started with my glo that empty space in the bottom drove me crazy, until I found how to get rid off it, it’s true that you shouldn’t have to convert a book to make it better looking but I prefer to take a bit off time and read without being annoyed with the lost space.
You can put this { widows: 0; orphans: 0; } in the extra CSS, you can set it by default in Calibre – Preferences / conversion / common options, and you can bulk convert, and even delete the original epus all at once, it only takes a minute.
