Ok, maybe I'm a bit sensitive to line height, as I've worked with a lot of print books.

I've never seen an epub where re-setting the line height to default didn't yield a pleasant result, though. And to me, increasing the height with something so drastic as 20+ % looks very strange, hence my advice would still be to leave it at default.
