I would like to provide additional comments.

My original description relates to the usage of "MB" to mean Megabytes
in decimal format (1,000 bytes). After further research, I did not know
of "MiB" (1,024 bytes) to refer to binary format. Thanks to the
popularity of MS Windows, which does not use the standard terminology
"MiB" or "GiB" (they always spell out the words "binary", never use the
abbreviation).

This is my error.

Your decision: to close out this bug report, or, to add a small
description stating that "MiB" = 1,024 bytes (to educate the users).
