Well that's one opinion I guess. Personally I prefer a TOC in all my books (although it's not a deal breaker). As for things not translating across formats that sounds like a problem with Smashwords' conversion software as I've never had a problem with them coming through fine when using Calibre for conversion. It would be nice if Smashwords would let writers who want to spend the time making their books look the best bypass their auto conversion meat grinder.
As for what readers think about chapter/page breaks...
