It makes them (I've read this in a few places and I know I feel this way) feel like it's going to take forever to read a really long article instead of maybe five "screen length" pages. I think pages are a good idea for long articles but I agree that it's a sticky situation to try and accomate everyone, especially with the original posters requirements (wants more than one page because of the background).
