Exactly right on the last point! For people who stick with the same format, page numbers would be a boon.

And is comparing different counts difficult?
In the unlikely event you did want to share it with someone else, all you need do is say it was page 357 out of 970 in your format - and they can easily figure out it's page 252 out of 684 in theirs.
