Comment:

 Okay, after a long discussion over private IRC chat, I've been able to
 come to the following conclusions:

 In 3.0, a static front page can be paged, with /page/2, and you get $page
 = 2, $paged null.

 In 3.0 and 2.9, a static posts page can be paged, with /page/2, and you
 get $page null, $paged = 2.

 In 2.9, a static front page cannot be paged, with /2, you get a 404, and
 with /page/2, you get the static posts page. That'd be a bug, and that was
 fixed in #12047.

 Thus, you have to be weary of overriding a static front page with your own
 query (also documented in #12047 I think), as you'll end up with $page
 instead of $paged. That sounds right to me, but I'm also fried, so I'm
 going to leave open with a suggested close as a duplicate of #12047 if
 correct.
