It's not a matter of how many extra page turns or such. But by having just large margins, it makes iBooks look not all that wonderful when full justified. If you have more text per line, you have less change of overly large spacing per word. But because of iBooks huge margin, I do have to turn off full justification since I do get larger spaces between words too much of the time. This is with the iPhone. It's actually more important to have smaller margins on a smaller screen. On the iPad, you get lots of extra pages due to the margins.
