While these are all good arguments, a good case can be made for using Keep 
with Next wherever possible to control page breaks. This eliminates the 
necessity of resetting page breaks after editing, cutting, pasting, etc. 
Like a non-breaking space for line breaks, keep with next just forces page 
breaks to be either above or below the paragraph grouping.

Of course, this is not a perfect solution either. If you use Keep with Next 
as an override, you have the problem of overrides, discussed in the 
previous posts to this thread.

And if you have Keep with Next tag variants (as I do), you have tag bloat, 
though I have to say, when you have five variants of the same tag, and your 
naming creates logical group in the Paragraph Catalog, it's not as bad as 
having the same number of tags ungrouped.
