what circles do you work in that would rule a book out for having footnotes?

I think you've mis-read what I wrote. Footnotes and endnotes are fine in themselves, used appropriately. Footnotes and endnotes having their own footnotes and endnotes is (AFAIK) nowehere accepted in the academic or technical realms, and footnotes and endnotes are certainly not accepted for the putposes espoused in the links you posted.
