It depends what you want to use them for. If you want to use them to give a reference to a point in a book, the finer granularity of Kindle locations is a benefit. As you know, an ePub "page" will often extend across several "screens" of a typical eBook reader, so simply giving someone the "page number" won't be any guarantee that they'll be looking at what you want them to. With a Kindle location, you can be pretty sure that the text you want to refer to will be visible on the screen at a particular location.
