@Gilles Sadowski : Thanks, it works! Interestingly, though, I had to iterate down to 16, because 19, 18, 17 *and 20* produce bigger outputs than default. They all produce 5 pages. And yet, *20 is the default*. If anyone can explain, I'd be more than happy (I imagine it's an interaction with lyluatex).
@Brian Barker : Thank you for your input, and for confirming what a system is (so I won't be in doubt anymore). @David Wright : ragged-last-bottom = ##f only works for the last system of the score, not the last system of the page, so it doesn't do what I was looking for, but thank you very much. @Jacques Menu : Sorry, I'm a linux user myself, so I have no idea how to make it work on mac.
