Yeah, I was just having some fun.

I know, at least for me, that several errors per page is too many to be considered reasonable. Now, not every page had errors in the book I initially described in my post. Probably, most pages did not have errors. But then, there was a significant number of pages that had several errors on each one of them. They seemed to come in clusters - which makes no sense, I agree, but that's how it appeared. Even the definition of "a page" is not concrete in eBooks, given that we can adjust font size, margins, and all that.
I'm not championing poor formatting in ebooks. In the case you described, you should write to the publisher and push for corrections.

I'm just saying I have realistic expectations and in some cases will accept a higher percentage of errors because I'm happy there's an e-version of the book at all.
