As I said, you made an excellent point about maintaining continuity when text (or a figure, for that matter) gets chopped in half.
I guess Sony figured that since your vertical view is such a small part of a page in landscape, this overlap is MORE important so you can still make sense of split pages.
That does make sense, but my point about not WASTING the limited vertical display space in landscape mode, when it is at a premium, and when the overlap is not wanted or needed, is also valid.
Sony should have long ago made this a per document settable option (like base font size) with page feeds settable to 1/3 page feed (2/3 overlap) 1/2 page feed (1/2 overlap) 2/3 page feed (1/3 overlap) or FULL page feed (ZERO overlap). Or even a simple numeric value in percent 5% to 100%
I understand your point about it not being a bug, but Sony is still getting beat up about this, so they should at least make it an option.
