Commercial.
Scene breaks are part of the content, not just formatting. Many of the scanned ebooks I've bought have been missing scene breaks, either some or all.
In a physical book, scene breaks are delineated by a wide band of empty space. Unless they occur at the top or bottom of a page, in which case they are usually represented by three asterisks (or similar character).
In an eBook, there are no pages. All scene breaks should be represented by a visible indicator.
