The problem with page #'s is that they are dependent on how many pages there are in a given book, and that depends at least in part on the size and type of the font that is being used. In one font/size a book may have 50 pages for example but that same book may have 75 pages in a slightly larger font or 35 pages in a slightly smaller font. So how can having a page numbered be a real help? I grant you that having a page # is useful in paper books such as when a teacher tells the class to turn to a particular page in a textbook but with ebooks it isn't as stable a measure.
