Surely in an ebook, internal cross references should simply be implemented as hyperlinks, shouldn't they? Why would one need to use a page number at all for such a purpose?

Simple case - a scanned PDF that has internal references to other pages. I have a lot of reference books that do that and at the moment I have to hand write a cross ref sheet to match the page number to the kindle location number.
DMSmillie, another reason for citations to refer back to paper based book pages is that different e-readers will give different references for the same location and that reference could also change with font size.
