This is completely incorrect.

Real Page Numbers (RPNs) in ebooks can still serve a useful purpose (especially for reference, navigation, and Accessibility). Latest in-depth "page numbers in ebooks" discussion was just last month:

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...88#post3914488

and you can always look up these topics in your favorite search engine:

Code:
"rpns" site:mobileread.com
"real page numbers" hitch site:mobileread.com
"real page numbers" tex2002ans site:mobileread.com
to pretty much find everything there is to know about them.



Sticking numbers smack dab in the middle of text will eventually get you Kindle Quality Notices (KQNs):
  • your books get a big warning banner
  • sales drop through the floor
  • and the books can even be pulled from sale until you fix.

See all the discussion and warnings in the infamous "Real Page Numbers for Reflowable Kindles" thread.
