The page break interval is a property of the Table object.
Select your table (either in the Outline view or on the layout canvas by hovering at the lower left hand corner) then go to its Properties tab. You'll see a subtab for Page Break.

Remember that Crystal is a page-oriented report package where BIRT is a web-oriented package. Crystal has a lot of logic (such as widow and orphan calculations) that is not (nor will it be) in BIRT.
That said, I assume there's a document somewhere describing the difference between Auto and Avoid. (Avoid means that the emitter - or web viewer - should attempt to avoid having a page break at the indicated position. Depending on the data rows and selected options, avoid cannot always be enforced.)

That's how I would expect the report to behave, and I certainly have reports that work that way. If the Edit Group has page break set to Avoid, then you'd see BIRT trying to keep all 20 together.
