But my point is, if I use the smallest size text in iBooks (which may be a different size than the smallest available in another application) a book might be 100 pages. When I zoom it to the largest font size, it might be 250 pages. On another reader, with different fonts, you're going to have different page counts as well. How do I tell someone reading a book on a Kindle "Look at the diagram on page 25," when his page 25 might be page 37, or page 21?
I didn't say we don't need section breaks (or whatever you want to call them). Sure, we need section breaks just as we need paragraphs and sentences. But what is a page when you can have an arbitrary length of scrolling text?
