Just because "that's were it's always been in pBooks and so when you look at a preview, you get to see the copyright and if there is a version number, you get to see that" is not a compelling reason. You like to check versions so having it there is convenient. Many people don't care. Why should those of us who don't care have to go past another page of useless (to us) information? It's a preference, nothing more.
The copyright goes after the title page. It doesn't help for the copyright to be at the end of the eBook. There's no way to see it (when it's at the end) other then borrow (library, Kobo Plus, or KU) or purchase.

Given that some do prefer to see the copyright, it's better to put it after the title page. Put the HTML ToC in the back. That (to me) is useless as I never use it. If I use/view the ToC, I use the ToC link n the reading software. It's a lot easier to get to the ToC. I do remove the HTML ToC when I edit the eBook.
