Re: Are we sure it's a bad thing when RAM usage goes up?

This is correct.

This is why I run RAM Sweeper periodically throughout the day. And also use Task Manager to close programs that are not being used or won't use for awhile. This helps improve battery life to have programs and tasks completely closed and out of memory...

It's an old habit since I'm a PC Gamer and always look for performance overall.
