Thanks for the explanation. I think that, for most users, something
like:

        nfacct list MiB

would be just fine, so all counters will be displayed using the
formatting (MiB in the example case) that has been requested.

I'm still missing why different formatting according to the accounting
object can be useful.

Regards.
