=============================
To me, what you describe as not "unusual" is
extra-unusual. The whole reason for using roman
numerals in front matter is to allow the non-front
matter to begin at arabic numeral 1. Your company's
numbering scheme is counter-intuitive and dumb. I defy
you to find any instance where
professionally-published books of any type use the
numbering scheme you describe.
