As long as you are happy with the results, that's all that really matters. Any of the page count algorithms have weak spots (since I ran into base64 images in the Adobe algorithm, I have also seen ebooks designed to break Amazon's APNX algorithm, calibre's page count (both the original and the improved) and most of the other algorithms I've run into.
Word count is still the most reliable indicator of books size but as long as you compare apples to apples, almost any algorithm is useful for most books.
OTOH, debating which algorithm is "best" belongs in a humour forum.
