Point taken. But I still think it's a little silly to get frustrated by scrolling, scrolling, scrolling through a long list of contents when clicking/tapping on Chapter 1/Prologue will end that particular misery with very little pain at all. Existential crisis averted. But I realize you have to consider ALL prospective buyers, and not just the relaxed, reasonable ones who don't think a free sample (or the front-matter of a purchased book) should necessarily need to conform to their every desire.
