Sorry if someone has already said this, but I have only come across the little dots a couple of times (probably 3 out of 100 books I've read on my kindle), and they've always been on proper ebooks have have been formatted by a third party publisher, so I assumed that there are properly indexed Chapter markers...

...but given the size of the dots compared the bar, whether they represent chapters &/or indexed notes and highlights, I think they are a bit stupid as the dots can represent, what, about 10-100 pages depending on the size of the book?! A bit silly I think, because there is no way to accurately locate them using the bar as a guide... I prefer just a plain black line on the bar (the first time I saw the dots, I thought my Kindle was being "glitchy" LMAO).
