That would mean every single computer ever sold is 'false advertising', according to your definition. If I buy a PC with a 500GB hard drive you start off with about 465GB useable, about 25GB is already taken up by OS and bundled apps, and about 12-16GB is taken up by recovery and utility partitions. The only difference here is initial hard disk size. Space taken up by file system overhead, OS, apps, utility & recovery partitions is about 41GB. 64GB-41GB = 23GB. On a 500GB (465GB useable) the free space would be about 424GB free space out of the box... false advertising? Nope.
EDIT: Keep in mind, this most likely includes a trial of office 2013 Pro preinstalled.
