WE HAVE A SOLUTION TO THIS, THEY ARE CALLED FOOTNOTES.

"COME OUT COME OUT AND FLIP TO THE BACK OF THE FUCKING BOOK AND SEARCH FOR THE TINY NUMBER. OH YOU HAVE A PDF? THEN FUCK YOU AND YOUR FUCKING LIFE" - DERANGED SICKO PUBLISHERS

Under communism, endnotes will be banned and punishable by law.

Yeah I have the same experience. It's awful and slows me down so much, and I have to have two windows open with the same PDF if I don't have the book. I can't not know what the fucking note says. It's the worst in books where they decide that each chapter needs to restart the sequence. Then you have to find the chapter, and then search for the number. And at that point, I've forgotten the number or what the sentence with the note even said.

Those are endnotes though, footnotes are at the bottom of the page which is easy to find, read, and then go back to reading.
