Ah.
I did say above (in a footnote, in small print, and I could have done a better job of clarifying, so thanks, @shamanNS):

Although I did forget to mention that calibre does not know how to apply metadata updates to the KFX portion of a dual-MOBI.
...
As for page numbers:
I happen to disagree about whether they are a good thing.
As far as I am concerned, they are only good for academic citation that needs to be mapped to a paper book... which means that unless you have a publisher-generated
Page-map/
PageList the page numbers will be wrong.
IMHO, the Kindle's "Time Left To Read" feature and the percentage read indicator is superior for the purpose of seeing where you are in the book.
But it is irrelevant, because while calibre can create a pseudo-random calculated page number when using Send-to-Device with the Kindle E-Ink driver, that file
must be sideloaded via USB. You cannot upload it to the Kindle Personal Document Service
