Graham, Have you tried putting each score inside it’s own \bookpart?
The documentation for ragged-last-bottom says: ragged-last-bottom <> <>If this is set to false, then the last page, and the last page in each section created with a \bookpart block, will be vertically justified in the same way as the earlier pages. If I’m reading that correctly, that means that unless each score is in a bookpart, ragged-last-bottom only applies to the very last page.
