This is my libre office version:

Version: 7.0.2.2 (x64)
Build ID: 8349ace3c3162073abd90d81fd06dcfb6b36b994
CPU threads: 16; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18362; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US
Calc: CL

I was able to reproduce the first part in which the header did not shrink.

4. Delete a few enter.. notice the header not shrinking

I was unable to to reproduce the second part. It remained at 0.50 cm for me and did not revert back to 2.84 cm.

The actual & expected results are not clear. Please explain them plainly.

I could reproduce the no-change if between steps 8 and 9 saved as DOCX and reloaded it. 
Then it is bad -> NEW, but maybe this is just a side effect of the vastly different header/footer models in Writer and Word.

However, if you do not uncheck Dynamic spacing in step 6 then it's good even after saving and reloading.
