Reducing the header by 50% also reduces the space you have to press at the top and it's too small. Use 33%.

As for the footer, this is what I think you should try. It's from nickel.patch. I've lightly changed the numbers from my H2O numbers given the larger screen and higher resolution. Replace the patch in nickel.patch with this one and give it a go.

Spoiler:
<Patch>
patch_name = `Custom reading footer style`
patch_enable = `no`
# Multi-version patch: 4.6.9960 - 4.7.10413+
# patch_group = `Reading footer alternatives`
#
## This patch customises the following properties of the reading footer:
##
## * Footer height (the amount of the screen reserved for the footer.)
## * Caption font size (Caption = page number or other progress indicator)
## * Caption top margin, which changes its vertical position within the footer.
## * Caption font family.
#
# When editing the replacement values below, BE CAREFUL NOT TO CHANGE THE LENGTH
# OF THE REPLACEMENT STRING! If a replacement string is too long you will get
# an error when making the patch, but if one is too short then there will be no
# error, but strange things will happen to the reading footer.

find_base_address = `ReadingFooter {\n qproperty-footerMargin: 105;\n}\n`
replace_string = 0000, `ReadingFooter {\n qproperty-footerMargin: 105;\n}\nReadingFooter[qApp_deviceIsDragon=true] {\n qproperty-footerMargin: 170;\n}\nReadingFooter[qApp_deviceIsDaylight=true] {\n qproperty-footerMargin: 221;\n}\n#caption[qApp_deviceIsTrilogy=true] {\n font-size: 19px;\n}\n#caption[qApp_deviceIsPhoenix=true] {\n font-size: 23px;\n}\n#caption[qApp_deviceIsDragon=true] {\n font-size: 29px;\n}\n#caption[qApp_deviceIsAlyssum=true] {\n font-size: 32px;\n}\n#caption[qApp_deviceIsDaylight=true] {\n font-size: 37px;\n}\n#caption[qApp_localeName="ja_JP"] {\n font-family: Sans-SerifJP, sans-serif;\n font-style: normal;\n}\n`, `ReadingFooter {qproperty-footerMargin:105;min-height:70px;max-height:70px}\nReadingFooter[qApp_deviceIsDragon=true] {min-height:80px;max-height:80px}\nReadingFooter[qApp_deviceIsDaylight=true] {min-height:90px;max-height:90px}\n#caption {font-size:19px;margin-top:+00px}\n#caption[qApp_deviceIsPhoenix=true] {font-size:23px}\n#caption[qApp_deviceIsDragon=true] {font-size:29px}\n#caption[qApp_deviceIsAlyssum=true] {font-size:32px}\n#caption[qApp_deviceIsDaylight=true] {font-size:37px}\n#caption[qApp_localeName="ja_JP"] {font-family:Sans-SerifJP,sans-serif;font-style:normal}\n\0`
