Literally no one describes a book's/story's length by using how many chapters or words it has. It is almost universally by how many 'pages' a book has. How many chapters a story has is arbitrary since chapter lengths vary widely, and word count for an average book can have a humongous range (for example, an average 50 page book has about 15,000 words, but an average 350 page book has over 100,000 words; would you prefer to know the length of a book by its pages or word count?). Using a way more common and easily understood metric that people actually use should be the automatic go-to on this site, and should be more visible for readers to determine how much of a story has been created. Right now, page amount is listed last on the Statistics tab. The 'pages' amount should be more readily available and visible to readers. This is common sense and used on other much more popular novel sites like RoyalRoad.
