For example "5.6M" could be written instead of "5,814,496". Would be less annoying for large files.

For me it's much more useful to see exact bytes. E. g. to find a file with a specific size when files are sorted by size.

I tried with variable number of digits, but it looks horrible. Therefore I added a new mode with TWO digits after the decimal separator, and also a new mode with TBytes in addition to GBytes.

My plugin 'DirSizeCalc' has very detailed unit settings. The included settings tool can be used to live preview different formattings very easily.
My personal observation is that mixing different units can be really confusing. Also a varying number of digits is also something where the eye needs to adapt everytime.
