I understand, but would be happy even with that concession. I'm reading some Terry Pratchett, and he doesn't "do" chapters, so you can't even get in the ballpark of a particular section of the book without going through hundreds? of pages one after another.... And even the "go to last read page" doesn't work because the footnotes are at the end of the book, which then becomes... the last page read. (you can jump back to the nearest footnote and then flip forward to your actual last read page, but this is such a crutch)

Score one for the 505 where I could always type in the page number to get back to.
