Lately, I have seen people mention a chapter and then a page number to make it easier to hunt down the section someone is talking about.

When Amazon first added the page number feature, people in book clubs made a big deal about this being important for book clubs.
Yes, and some books don't have chapters even by name only.
There is a way of doing the page numbers of the paper edition in an ebook that work for most formats, any device and and any app. Though it can be annoying if you don't want page numbers visible in the text, however it can still work even if the page number text is invisible.
