I really think it's a regression, as for the recipes I use everything works fine until calibre version 3.39.1, while later versions (I tested 3.40.1 and 3.42.0) inflate the vertical whitespace.

A single " " tag is replaced by 3.39.1 with a single "*" while the later versions replace each " " tag with four of these "<p..> " sections.

I can provide a simple test recipe with the good and the broken epub file generated from it, if that helps.
