Another factor is that if you are lucky enough to encounter an index, you must know what 94V means, or just 94 (they don't use R for front in any church indices I have ever seen). And if you want a response from the archive if you ever send them a letter request, knowing the page as they describe it will also help you.
If I wanted them to transcribe a very faint entry that is on 23v, I would easily lead them to the record.

For this reason, I've adopted their system since the beginning of my research.

Isabel & Dano,
 
Many of us when we started in genealogy, we referenced records to suit our needs and did it in a way that made the most sense to us at the time.  Using the terms Right and Verso makes the most sense. I am still adding the CCA image in the note in case I want to refer back to the original record. Of course if CCA  ever changes even this link would no longer be relevant. So we must write the reference as if the only thing we could go back to is the original ledger. Now to institute changes to the records that I did using the term “Left”
