This shit annoys me to no end. The page isn't blank because you printed those words there.

If the must print something because they don't trust their own runs, couldn't they just have picked a nice little symbol or something instead of that fucking line.

It has to do with the little bundles of pages that you see when looking at a book from below, each contains a certain number of pages, so the total number of pages in a book must be a multiple of that number, they add that text so you don't complain that although you paid for the entire book filled with words, your page came empty

it is blank, in the sense that it's devoid of non-technical text

if you're this autistic how do you get any enjoyment from books at all

This is how it used to be, with modern printing they can have exact numbers and no need for a blank page
