I would suspect that this setting causes the extra stave.
If you want the setting to apply to all staves of this PianoStaff,
you should do \override PianoStaff.SpacingSpanner ...
or even better learn the \with syntax:
\new PianoStaff  \with {
 \override SpacingSpanner
    #'base-shortest-duration = #(ly:make-moment 1 16)
 instrumentName = "Piano "
} <<
   \new Staff = "rh" \rh
   \new Staff = "lh" \lh
>>
