Why does NGC not change a "setting" in their Journals Views counter? 0

I've recently taken a renewed interest in my NGC Journal.  I posted a new entry… my second entry in ten years of participation.

As with any creative effort, "creators" like to admire their work, or like to edit their work to improve on it further.  However, even when logged in, I notice that the Views Counter of my Journal updates by one View for each time I view any aspect of my Journal.  This includes just clicking on the "General" overview page.  (that everyone has, i.e. in my case:  A journal by USAuPzlBxBob)

Views are an indication of popularity on a Website, and by enabling spurious aggrandizement of everyone's Journals by their own viewings of their work… well, it just doesn't seem right.

Is there any possibility that NGC might be willing — or able — to change this default Views counter so as not to update when the owners of Journals click/work on their own Journals when logged in?
