Access (the KePub renderer) used a similar page number style to ADE. It just used a different number of compressed bytes to represent a page. So if you regularly read KePub, you got used to the page numbers.
Now Kobo have changed the page numbers to be 1 page = 1 screen. So that totally changes the page numbers and they don't mean much of anything.

Yep. Said better than I'm saying it. When page numbering can change this drastically it's better not to use numbers at all. Just use percentages and give up the pretense.
