I don't understand why: did you disable visual-line-mode (it is ON by
default)?  Or maybe Evil does something with the related commands and
features?  Because by default, pressing the down arrow key once moves
1 _screen_ line down, which still fits the scroll-conservatively==1
condition, and should give you the behavior you want.

I just tried what I think you are doing, when lines are wrapped, and
didn't have any recentering.  How about a recipe to reproduce this
starting from "emacs -Q"?
