One other point to defend my premise that there's little difference between checking "demand" deposits and savings accounts.

All money that is deposited into a bank technically represents a loan to that bank. It's so identified as such by the fact that the bank pays interest on the money we have deposited.

If checking accounts did not fall under this status, they wouldn't draw interest, right?

So the way those demand deposits are being excluded from money supply is flawed, IMO.
