No, you're conflating the ebook LITB and the print book LITB. Even commercially made books "look" somewhat like they run together; there's no visible page-break, or "edge of paper" break like there is in the print book LITB.

In our ebooks, the chapters DO start on a new screen--but even in ours, in the LITB, there's only a relatively small amount of vertical whitespace separating the end of Chapter 1 from the beginning of Chapter 2, etc. Amazon's CSS for the LITB overrides much of what you do in the MOBI itself e.g., suppresses any fonts).
