Research direction
Start with the MemoryLoadBytes entry in System/GCMemoryInfo.xml and compare it with the published API article at the provided Page URL. Verify which description is consistent with the property type and underlying documentation, then update the contradictory wording so the article gives one unambiguous definition.

Description
The article discribes the property as "The physical memory load, in bytes," So it is a number of bytes.
But the texte explains how it is computed by :"MemoryLoadBytes is obtained from reading the MemAvailable field from /proc/meminfo divided by the total physical memory", So it is a ratio, presumably less than one.
But both sentences cannot be true together. And as the property type is long, probably the ratio explanation is plain wrong..
