These steps usually lead to consistent bottom margins without the moving up and down I described in my first post, apart from a few books, mainly fiction. I hope this helps clarify what I've been doing up to now.
Do not choose Kobo in your output profile. Choose tablet. By choosing tablet, graphics will ne be resized if they are large enough. You don't want to make hi-res graphics into low-res graphics.

Also, don't set line height to anything. With a Kindle, there already is a line height set and with Kobo, you can set your own line height.

As for windows and orphans, you want to set them to 1 in case 0 is not recognized. You never know in some firmware update that could happen. Look at what happened with Kobo and KePub. The way the page numbers were done have been changed.
