I never said @page didn't work with ADE. I remember on the Sony Readers, when @page was used, it moved the page number in the right side over by the amount of the right margin in @page. So that just caused blank space between the page number and the right side. Without the right side page number, @page works perfectly well in ADE. But, older Readers such as the aforementioned 300 or 505 did have the page number and @page did effect the placement of that page number. Overall, I think it's best not to use @page if the purpose is for avoiding the right side page number on Readers that still have them.

Also, some readers like left justify, others not. It is a personal opinion. Some want a small margin on each page, others don't. It is also a personal opinion.
If the justification is not specified, ADE defaults to left. The problem is that some older Readers do not have a way of changing the justification and you get what's in the CSS.

Think about using relative instead of fixed values for certain styling such as font-size. It gives the reader much more flexibility.
ADE defaults to a 1em font size. So plan other font sizes (such as chapter titles) around that. That works best and it doesn't cause an issue such as not being able to change the font size.
