That's not all the documentation says about 'line-height'. It also
says this (in the "Line Height" node referenced from the place you
cite):
There are several ways to explicitly specify a larger line height,
either by specifying an absolute height for the display line, or by
specifying vertical space. However, no matter what you specify, the
actual line height can never be less than the default.
[...]
Finally, a newline can have a ‘line-spacing’ text or overlay property
that can enlarge the default frame line spacing and the buffer local
‘line-spacing’ variable: if its value is larger than the buffer or frame
defaults, that larger value is used instead, for the display line ending
in that newline.
IOW, this property can only enlarge the line's height, which is
confirmed by the fact that using 300 in your example does work as
expected.
This is not a bug. This property exists so a Lisp program could
produce higher lines than the default.
To produce lower lines, you can use a face with a low :height
attribute, and arrange for the newline to have that face. You can
find an example of doing that in log-edit.el.

The documentation already mentions the limitations, see above.

To reproduce this issue, please start Emacs with "emacs -Q" and then
evaluate the following form:
(progn
(goto-char (point-max))
(insert "\n")
(insert (propertize "\n" 'line-height 3))
(forward-line -1)
(line-pixel-height))
In my case, the minibuffer then states "17". The expected result is 3,
because documentation states:
A newline can have a =E2=80=98line-height=E2=80=99 text or overlay p=
roperty that
controls the total height of the display line ending in that newline.
For comparison, it works exactly as expected if I change "3" to "300" in
the snippet above, yielding "300" in the minibuffer.
If possible, could you please make line-height control the total height
of the display line also in the original example, or alternatively
consider changing the documentation to mention all relevant exceptions?
Thank you and all the best!
Markus
