Chapter markings are useless as a visual gauge when there are a lot of chapters in the book. The markings are spaced so close that the progress indicator just jumps from one marking to the next when the chapter's over instead of making a gradual and visible progress from one marking to the next. I actually find the page numbers even more useful in this context.
