There cannot be a single "best" value, the line spacing varies between fonts, depending on how they are designed. For some font a line spacing of 1 may cause ascenders and descenders to just touch, for a different font they may overlap with the same value, and for yet another font there may be a gap between them. Line spacing is a bit like font size.

And this is not a Kobo issue/feature, it's just the way fonts work.
