But I have some ideas at least and can do some testing to see what I like.
Maybe orphans=1000 and widows=1000 just to fill all pages with text
That may not work.

1) As you increase Widows and Orphans from 1, the occasional white space at the bottom of a page caused by keeping the paragraph text lines together increases.

2) What if a user has a larger font, smaller screen or book has a very large paragraph (I'm looking at you, authors before 1920s)? I think then a single word or line can appear on a next page, which might have no other content. A line or a few lines of a new paragraph won't start at the bottom of page.

3) I think every paragraph that won't fit on a page (either because of being big or already there are paragraphs) will start on a new page.

You likely don't want it that big.
