Percent is no good as 100% is useless. Time left is useless as that depends on how long the eBook is and how fast you read. So unless you've read enough of the eBook for the time left to give you a reliable enough number, it's no good. The 1 page = 1 screen also doesn't work because you don't know how many pages there are. And finallt ADE page numbers. They work best because out of the box, they give the most accurate measure.

It’s uncommon for me to change the font in a significant way in terms of adding or removing pages with 1 screen: 1 page. Thus when I open a book it gives me a good estimate of how long the book is because the text per screen is effectively fixed. Adobe has already been shown to not be fixed as excessive code can cause it to inflate a book by 50-100 pages.
It works for you. Screen to page works for others.
This isn’t a new discussion and the rest of the community has come to accept that we all like different page numbering methods (or don’t care about them at all since pages don’t exist in ebooks).
