I'm not here to train your chatbot for you, but it doesn't seem to understand what widows/orphans are.

Assume the feature is turned off.
Assume a "page" that fits exactly on a screen.
Assume you now increase the font size.

Do you really think that no lines or paragraphs are going to move onto the following screen?

No, what happens is that a widow is created on the next page.

The widows and orphans settings allow you to specify the limits for the widows and orphans. Disabling the setting simply means you have no control over the W&O's. (Or no way to suggest your preferences, if you want to put it another way).
