Description: When typing a paragraph, there are times when I want to enter a line break without starting a new paragraph. For example, suppose I am entering a list item and I want the first line of the item to be its 'title'. I type <SHIFT><RETURN> to start a new line in the same paragraph. The previous line is justified even if it contains *two* words. I seem to recall that previous versions did not force this justification. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a new writer doc. 2. Click the 'justified' icon in the toolbar. 3. Type "Lorem ipsum<shift><return>dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit". Actual Results: The word 'Lorem' is left-justified. The word 'ipsum' is right-justified. The remaining text is left justified as expected. Expected Results: The software should treat the 'short' line the same as the last line of a paragraph: probably left-justified for LTR text or right-justified for RTL text. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: This is on Debian Bullseye; yes, it's an older version of LO.

I believe that is by design, but see https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/justified-text-and-forced-line-breaks/45609/2 for a solution.
