Each <ref follow=...> is a typesetting matter...
I don't think that introducing the <ref follow=...> continuation method was ever intended to make exact page mirroring in HTML possible. AFAIK it was developed to avoid forcing user to switch between pages while verifying the text.
And yes, I agree that this exammple is rather curiosity than a page design model.

Ah okay. Slightly different situation than I was trying to explain.
That is just butt ugly. I can think of some tricky ways to do it in a presentation space so it sort of is like that, but all ultimately pointless for main namespace. I would simply move it forward a page and add a <!-- rem --> about why in the footer of both pages. Ultimately that is a typesetting matter, not the author's intent, so why waste time going picture perfect.

See footnotes 15 & 16:
footnote 15 starts on page 16 and continues on 17 footnote 16 is referenced at page 16, so it starts as empty footnote on page 16 also and continues on 17 (full footnote text there)
If you can suggest another solution, I will be intrigued.

I don't see *two* footnotes start and continue from the one page, I just see one footnote start on 18 to19, and another start on 19 to 20. I don't see see two footnotes continue start on 18 or 19 and both continue to subsequent pages.

To note that you can use multiple versions of <ref follow> if the reference carries on. Also to note that you cannot use numbers in the ref name, the extension doesn't play, so at enWS we would usually do something like <ref name ="p56"> where it is the initial page and continue it. I have never seen two footnotes start and continue from the same page, so it is pretty safe.
It happens. See
