Default Mana bar not accurate

Hello,

Just now I'm logged in with my ogre SK and noticed an issue. Maybe not a big deal and maybe already known but what happened is:

Practicing my spells, I have 192 mana total. I tanked my mana bar to 3 percent and then tried to recast a spell that is 5 mana. It would not allow me to cast it. I waited, 4 percent, no go. It then hit 5 percent and I tried to cast. It failed due to the standard 'drop back down a percent momentarily' effect, and at 4 percent continued to fail. Soon as it reported I had 5 percent, my 5 mana spell then cast.

Math would show that 5 percent of 192 is not 5 mana. 100, yes. Not 192, just thought I'd mention the discrepancy as at that scale it doesn't matter much but not sure if that's affecting a larger mana pool more drastically.
