    Hi Sab 
    You are right, I forgot that sometimes we need it in this way.
    If You change the scale for logarithmic, formatting  works on labels, maybe just don't use the Y axis:

    and of course, you can report the Y-axis issue as an issue or idea:

Hi Sab 

In this case, it is a feature, not a bug.
Simple graphs cannot have different units on the same axis.

It is only used for displaying values in a dynamic format.

Due to proportional issues
It is simply impossible to fit thousands and millions onto one axis, for instance.

This is why it is aligned with some common camps on the graph
