ADE style page numbers can be cited. Number of screens cannot.
Depending on the type of reading you are doing, it is more useful to count screens.

I'm not too worried about having to cite pages from The Sonora Noose in a scholarly paper. But if my break is winding down, it is handy to know that 5 pages left = 5 screens of reading.

Both styles are useful. But what is the overwhelming use case for e-books?
