At this point, (for me) the register contains ^J^J^J (three
carriage-return characters)

With me, it inserts three empty lines immediately after the current
line (i.e., between lines 1 and 2)

My results make more sense to me than yours. I'm using gvim (Huge)
with GTK3 GUI. See below is the output of ":set" with no arguments as
seen with the same buffer being current. Maybe you are using some
different option(s) which make it behave otherwise for you?
I haven't tried the same experiment in console mode. Are you in a
console or in the GUI? What is your 'paste' setting? (Mine is at its
'nopaste' default.)
