ADE page numbers had the advantage of being consistent within a book, across devices and across my library as a whole, which let me estimate how much time I had left in a chapter and a book. As it turns out, I'm better at that than Kobo.

I'm generally not that fussy, but this is a major inconvenience. Kepubs have gone from having a meaningful page measure to one that's useless.
I too do not like how many screens as the page number for the entire eBook. I like the way it's done with ePub. I get ADE page numbers for the entire eBook and for the chapter I get how many screens. That works very well.

I do think it would be a good idea if ADE page numbers were the standard for ePub page numbers.
