Oversized Interface's fluid storage capacity can be abused to store fluids in the network

I've checked the oversized interface recently and found out that it can stock up to INT_MAX of millibuckets per slot. It is around 2 million buckets and can be compared to 256k fluid cell with 1 type of fluid. Having 36 slots oversized interface can replace 36 256k fluid cells. it also twice as big for types than a regular fluid cell (18 types).
It is when you put a storage bus onto an oversized interface with fluid in it. Making something like interface autostocking from ae2 guide but not crafting and just holding.
I assumed by x16 times per slot meant i could store about 64 buckets of any fluid per slot. But this insane capacity actually makes them beyond unbalanced to have such fluid storage for so cheap.
Update:
Apparently you can overstock it so it accepts even more fluid
Update 3: It seems the oversize_interface_multiplier config doesn't apply well for fluids
Update 5: After looking at the code it must throw around this part and then return MAX_LONG that's why it can store up to MAX_LONG in a single slot
