Of course not. If you have a page style set to only display on a right page,
then it is going to automatically insert a blank page if needed.

>From the documentation:
"Only right
The current page style shows only odd (right) pages. Even pages are shown as
blank pages.
Only left
The current page style shows only even (left) pages. Odd pages are shown as
blank pages."

It functions exactly as I need it to function and exactly as it was told to
function. If you don't want an automatically inserted blank page, then don't
use a style that sets Right Only or Left Only, but that doesn't mean that for
other people it's nonsensical.

> 2. The extra pages are not visible while editing the document.
As I said before, they are if you enable book view. But as the data is changed,
the page requirements might also change. It may be a distraction if the blank
pages continually appear and disappear while you're editing. But it is a nice
feature that LibreOffice will take care of such requirements when it publishes
the finished document.

> 3. A blank page is added before the first page, even though there was no
> request to insert such a blank page.
By requesting a Left Only page, you just defined that you wanted that first
page to be on the left side. Therefore in order to accommodate your request it
will insert a blank page as per the documentation.
