There is workaround explained here: https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/how-can-i-remove-double-carriage-returns/16885 Also, the extension: https://extensions.libreoffice.org/en/extensions/show/alternative-dialog-find-replace-for-writer It's powerful for that kind of task.

If is possible copy ¶ and past ¶ in to search and substitution, without expression, it could be better for the next improve for LibreOffice. Example text for test, copy and past into search: Word¶ ¶ phrase¶ ¶ --- substitution Word¶dog¶--- Word¶ dog¶

It is not searchable. And as noted in duplicate bug 108256 the ICU based regex \n will search for the newline (<Shift>+<Return> entry in LO), but as replacement the \n places a paragraph object break.
