Yes, but I have this
horrible feeling he means,
throughout. Like, constantly throughout, rather than on the odd occasion.
If you try to read books like this, where someone has manually caused pages to break, roughly following the original print layout, it's a damned nightmare. And
how does @grNadpa "know" where those pages are breaking, inconveniently or otherwise? Were they tested, at all font sizes, on all devices, in all device orientations?
I feel like this is a solution in search of a problem. The entire point of not going with PDFs, as eBooks, was for reflowability. Not a stranglehold on the reader's devices.
At that point, why not just do fixed-layout and call it a day?
