Actually that is not true.
Knowing the amount of disk space each recording is likely to use combined with the amount available enables you to decide what you can or cannot record.
When you are going away for a few days this is particularly important.

I'd be interested to see what the lower and upper limits of 5% are, because multiplied by 20 the total margin of error could be 200GB, or 20% of the disk space.

I have always said I was recording from BT4K channel
I would have thought that anything from 4.50 to 5.49 would be shown as 5 (general mathematics) however that may not be the case.
With disk sizes such as 1Tb and above it would be good to have these %ages given to 1 decimal place.
I would also like to know if the whole 1Tb is available for recording or if, as I suspect, some is used to store the EPG and software (if so how much) - someone must know the answer to this!
