It's true, we don't really have pages anymore, but I think the metaphor still works for most people. We don't really have file drawers and folders in our computers either, but we seem to work just fine with the little paper and folder icons.
I didn't say that they were worthless; I said that they were worthless as a method of providing a reference for a particular point in a book.
