That's what they are for. Also figures + units (though technically a half size non-breaking space or similar).

But "crazy" referred to <p>&nbsp</p>
Extra space between paragraphs should be a last or first paragraph with extra margin. They shouldn't be used in an attempt to replicate horizontal or vertical tabs. Tabs were for typewriters.

Edit:
Sometimes a word with a hyphen shouldn't wrap

No idea if they work in some or all ebooks. Only regular and ordinary non-breaking spaces work universally in ebooks, but safe to have other sizes of space in PDFs, because likely if it works on your PDF, it will work for printer/POD etc.
