That’s short volume, not short interest (aka short positions). It is best to read up on Riskless principle to understand the difference between daily short volume and factual short Interest as provided by FINRA. They are not the same.

Short volume is not meaningful anyway. It records the initial leg of the transaction, while the FTD Report records the final disposition of all short volume transactions after the settlement period of T+2 days.

If a stock lacks any significant FTDs, it doesn’t have a problem with short interest.

This is short interest, 9982 shares (less than $1) - obviously not abusive:
