I worked on a military writing project where the lead of the Operator level
manual (the only one that had a paper copy) seemed to be afraid of page
breaks. There is no telling how much time and money (ultimately from the
DOD budget and our taxpaying pockets) were wasted on adjusting pages that
had rolled (a few of these files were over 100 pages).
The biggest irony is that it's easier to insert a page break anyway if you
hold the Ctrl key while hitting Enter (a trick I picked up while fixing some
of that mess).
