You'd have to experiment with fixed line spacing to have text line up
across columns. Also, spacing before/after must be integer multiples of
the line spacing. See if you find it worth the effort (you're really
working against Word's capabilities). :-(

Also, at File tab | Options | Advanced, make sure that "Don't balance
columns at the start of Continuous sections" is *cleared* (to see the
option, click to expand the "Layout options").

Yeah, that is indeed correct, though it doesn't solve the problem.
Columns aren't precisely aligned to the bottom margin but rather still
ragged on all pages (see attached picture).
