I really don't think he was trying to scam 1 more page read in books that probably number at least 300 pages...

It's not about the number of pages—if the ToC was moved to the beginning, the total count would be the same—it's about having people skip to the last page to look at the ToC even if they don't plan to finish the book.

Why would people skip to the last page to look at ToC of a novel? He put it there so people don't have to look at it.
