Well, I like to see zero paging and, more than that, some spare real

Caveat: I get the daily digest so you've likely already gotten an answer.
I suspect it's a text formatting/separation thing. From your partial quote:

units., I moved back a section to 26.4.1 and found a link to table
There is no good recommendation how to set up a good paging
configuration on a modern DS8800 device, nor does it explain the
consequences of Hyperpav and WLMPAV set to NO in relation with OA32453
where ASM is still building a I/O infrastructure that utilizes
Hyperpav. Nowhere is explained
