Free, unused memory isn't fucking wasted memory.
I want the option to use that memory later and cached memory just prevents me from using the very expensive memory I paid for.
Why can't I use the memory I paid for as I see fit? Why does Windows think it understand me memory usage needs better than I do?

Because you're a retard who doesn't know cache gets cleared automatically if it's needed for something else.

Unused memory = wasted memory applies ONLY when we talk about filling it up with cache.
In any other context it's just lazy "developers" spreading fake and gay "opinions".

>Why does Windows think it understand me memory usage needs better than I do?
Because it almost certainly does, unless you're an expert at systems programming and you're doing something very niche (in which case you'd probably be using Linux instead).
That "cached" memory will become available very quickly if it's required for an application.

"Unused memory is wasted memory" is developers arrogantly assuming you will be using their app alone on your computer and nothing else
