Kobo easily could have allowed for this level of customization, why they opted not to is anyone’s guess, however one “answer” that can absolutely be eliminated is that there’s some sort of standard requiring page numbers go in a particular place on a page.

Page numbers for eBooks have been on the bottom for as long as I've been reading eBooks. Just because a lot of pBooks do it on the top in the corner does not mean it has to be that way for an eBook. Sony was doing it on the bottom ever since the PRS-500. And that was the first eInk eBook Reader sold in the US. As for being factually wrong, as far as eBook Readers go, I am correct.
I know Kobo could have made opens for where the page numbers and chapter info go.But they didn't They kept to the standard page numbers at the bottom and that left the chapter info at the top.
