Ridicule always helps in any argument, doesn't it? In the old scheme the original hardback might be 450 pages and the eBook might be 530 pages (numbers pulled out of a hat). No, not the same, but something that at least "correlates," a general idea of book length. With the screen-per-page scheme, change the font size and the page count can be anything, 200 pages to 4,000 pages. It's totally meaningless.
Why not offer the option to use the old system? A system not based on something as arbitrary as the number of words on a particular screen (depending on font size, or size of the screen).
