I disagree.
Of course, it could be made optional.

And the argument that it carries little info isn't
an argument for showing no info.  It's an argument
for showing more or better info.

And yes, the info can be improved.

In my case (Dired+, files+.el), it shows this, for
any listing:

 z:/path/to/some/subdir:
 files 157/1659 space used 34111 available 101612836

`files 157/1659' shows the # of files currently
shown (visible) in the current subdir listing (157),
compared to the # of files in the main dir (1659).

And that `files 157/1659' is a link/button.
Mouseover tells you:

 Files shown / total in directory [RET, mouse-1: more info]

And clicking or RET shows you complete info about
that subdir.  E.g.:

z:/path/to/some/subdir
----------------------

File Type:                  Directory
Permissions:                drwxrwxrwx
Time of last access:        Wed Jul 25 08:26:24 2018 (Pacific Daylight Time)
Time of last modification:  Wed Jul 25 08:26:24 2018 (Pacific Daylight Time)
Time of last status change: Wed Jul 25 08:26:16 2018 (Pacific Daylight Time)
Number of links:            1
User ID (UID):              37686
Group ID (GID):             513
Inode:                      281464976926869
Device number:              315264003

Similarly, "space used 34111 available 101612836" is
a link/button.  Mouseover tells you:

 Kbytes used in directory, Kbytes available on disk

And the same info (see above) is shown when you click
or use RET.

And let's not forget that when Dired details are
hidden (`('), the line isn't shown at all.  (IMO,
details should be hidden, not shown, by default.)
