It seems like we're beating a dead horse here. Some of us will prefer page numbers whether accurate or not, some will only want exact page numbers that would match a physical book or some magical equation, some prefer a percentage whether they know what it's based on or not, some of us want it per chapter and some per book only, and some don't give a flying leap about any of it. No one is wrong in what they prefer to use, just like we all prefer our favorite font and no one is wrong there either.

For myself, I prefer to see page numbers for the book, as xx / xxx. I don't care if it's accurate to match anything else, it gives me what my mind prefers to roughly know what's left in a book. That doesn't mean if I didn't have it that way I wouldn't buy the reader. But if there is a way to make it the way I prefer either through settings or patches, of course I'll do it.

And now add in thoughts about time remaining... there are endless possibilities of combinations between percentages, pages, time, chapters, word counts, that make my head hurt. Just use what you prefer and don't belittle anyone for wanting it a different way.
