Writer inserting blank pages at random in document

I have a number of odt files that I work on regularly, most of them are between
200 and 500 pages with a mix of text and embedded images. As I move around
editing text, that new text will of course fill a page and flow to the next one
moving everything along and increasing the page count by one as normal.
However, at random times a blank page would creep in somewhere below which has
no data or can be edited, its almost like a graphics glitch, a blank page
inserted at random perhaps many pages below I was originally editing perhaps
but never above. I assumed this was some bad formatting on my part causing the
issue at first, but after a year of this it looks like a bug.

Recently the issue has become much more apparent slowing down workflow greatly,
when the problem now happens and say I insert just even one single new page in
a 500 page document or image, the whole document can suddenly balloon into 600
pages with new blank pages scattered all over. Nothing seems to be corrupted
and indeed if I save the document and open it later, those blank pages are
gone. I have tried copying the contents into a fresh document, but sooner or
later the issue arises again.

I have included a sample file which has the problem (I've tried to sanitise the
data somewhat in the file for privacy)
