Comment:

 Why should a Posts column include the page count too? - Afterall, Its a
 Posts column.
 Because a page and a post are both posts. They are both first-class
 content types in WordPress that are remarkably identical.

 When I delete spam users, a heuristic is those with a strange email
 address, 0 posts, and 0 comments (they are spammed or deleted). But
 suppose a user has 3 pages but 0 posts? Right now his post count would be
 0. Is that a spam user?

   Should it include Attachments too?
 Not sure that provides much value. Attachments are a piece of a page/post.

   What about custom post types?
 Not familiar enough with the custom post type ecosystem to comment.

   The other option, is to change it to list the contributions, Ie:
 "Activity: 5 Posts, 1 Page, 50 Comments" inline with your other ticket:
 #10629
 That consolidates all three counts in one field and makes it more
 difficult to scan large lists. In that other ticket, I also proposed a way
 to make a sparse matrix more usable--use a blank instead of a 0. This
 would defeat that significant usability improvement.
