Is there any practical purpose for that?
It may be handy to see two pages at once. There might be piture/diagram/formula on one page and accompaniing text on another. If the book is 'printed' with the reader in mind, then two pages of open book may be considered as one 'piece'. Putting all info needed on two pages of open book impies no problem to the reader. Putting it on two consequetive pages you cannot see together means the reader has to flip the pages back and forth... Not convenient.

So possibility to see two pages at e-reader, side by side might be of great utility for some types of texts.
