I think that to say it's "totally inaccurate" is putting it a little strongly. It seems to routinely have an error of about a dozen pages, but that's an absolute error, not a relative one. eg if you jump, say, 80% of the way through a book, you'll end up within about a dozen pages of the "true" 80% point. That's good enough for many purposes.
It would be a lot better described as an approximate positioning mechanism rather than an exact "page count", however.
