I will concede to your point sort of.
The sort of is if there is only paper book version. Otherwise what is on page 100 in one version may be on page 110 or 90 in another version.
Hence my dear professor, that is why we were all taught to reference a specific edition of a book.
But I still say for just reading, page numbers are not very useful on devices.
Yes, they would be useful if I was writing an academic paper.
