.

If  STANDARD  numeration of pages is used  (page 1 on the right side;  then pages  2  and  3  follow facing up;
then pages  4  and  5  face up),  then pages  31  and  32  will  NEVER  face up to a reader simultaneously.


In this sense,  the problem is  DEFECTIVE.


Pages  32  and  33  can face up to a reader;
pages  30  and  31 can face up to a reader, --

but  NOT  pages  31  and  32.


I just saw similar problem at this forum long time ago,  and accompanied it with similar note.

================

Open any book from your bookshelf and make sure that I am right.
