--- Comment #2 from Joel Madero <jmadero.dev at gmail.com> ---
The only reason this came up was because a user came into the #libreoffice
channel and for the life of him couldn't figure out what was going wrong as he
saw a reference to "Illustration 6" when he had clearly selected "Illustration
1"

I've only used cross-references a handful of times but I can say hands down
I've never referred to a page (anecdotal I know). 

The other option maybe is to redesign the dialog so it's more obvious as to
what is being referred to. On the right (main part) you see "Illustration 1"
and it's only when you look to the bottom left that you see that Page is being
referred to. When the largest part of the dialog (where the eyes move to) says
"Illustration 1", it seems like you would of course assume the reference will
be to Illustration 1 and not Illustration 6.

Of course if UX as a whole says no, go ahead and close it - I just think that
the current situation leaves a lot to be desired.
