I am simply trying to have a chapter that is not cluttered with visible footnotes and have popups available throughout the narrative
Well, I was about to reply to your original post that I have no problem whatever in this respect because I keep my formatting simple. But I see by this post that you have closed out that fruitful avenue for fixing things.

If a book has a lot of worthwhile endnotes I split them off into a separate epub so that I can refer to them on my phone while reading on my tablet/ereader. I loathe popups; and if a group of notes reflect alternatives, I want to read them as group. I've also been known to photocopy the endnotes in p-books for similar reasons.

Wow. That is admirable! I love endnotes, and I often read with a finger at the back of the book, or in the case of a hardcover I fold the back flap into the endnotes.

In the case of an ebook I'm less likely to browse the endnotes, but I do sometimes read the next few notes just to make sure I'm not missing something good.

I always hope to find something good, because in my books I go out of my way to make the endnotes enchanting.
