Actually I don't that much care about page or word count except to know if it's a short, novella or book.
Amazon's page count is meaningless to the general public.

"It was always evil"? Seriously?
Right, booksellers have been using page counts since the dawn of time, and you've decided it's "evil." It's ridiculous, because the BOOKSELLER doesn't know, now, does it? Amazon doesn't KNOW the word count in a paperback. Or a hardcover. Neither does B&N, or
any other bookseller, online or otherwise.
I suggest you take your suggestions to the publishers, because it is
they who would have to provide this information to the bookstores,
not the bookstore's job to provide it to you.
