But they also split chapters between files in mid-chapter even when there is no need from a size point of view to do it. That means on most readers that you get a bogus page break in mid chapter.

For my own use I usually merge everything from Gutenberg into a single big file then get Calibre to split at proper chapter breaks. I also rename all the files into something much shorter and more meaningful.
