Yeah the request is "obviously" for kilos/megs/gigs sizes, but I too find calling large positive integers "not human readable at all" strange, they're perfectly normal numbers afterall. Sure we could add a format extension to allow "human readable" formatting for numeric fields, there are many more possibly large numbers in packages than just %{SIZE}.
