Short interest is the total number of shares of a particular stock that have been sold short by investors but have not yet been covered or closed out.

That's not what short interest is at all. What you described is "failure to deliver" numbers. A short borrows stock to sell and as such, delivers that borrowed stock to the buyer. The borrowed stock is the short interest.
