The kernel is simply exporting what it's doing. The presentation is upto system monitoring tools. I recall lots of tools which kind of gave the wrong signals years ago but these days I don't recall seeing such things too often. There always is a problem with people who are fixated on weird stuff but I don't think it's possible to satisfy everyone. We can't show cached as free memory for people who claim the kernel is wasting all memory, right? That's a very bad solution for a virtually non-existing problem. Zenith88, if Linux grinds your gears that much and makes you angry, go ahead and use or do something else. Life is short. Do something you like and, well, more importantly to me, don't get in the way of other people at the very least. If you wanna actually delve into solving a technical issue, please stay technical from this point on.
