Why no finer settings? An ereader not like submitting paper with space for writing in between. The Kindle line spacing seems like the line spacing on a basic mechanical typewriter!
What I do is set a -45px L/R margins in html in CSS and it works. It even works on the PW5. The page break is to fix a bug from back when. No idea if it's still needed. But as it causes no problem, it's staying.

Code:
html {
  margin-right: -47px;
  margin-left: -47px;
  break-inside: avoid !important;
}
