Monospaced number characters in the Finder

I'm on a MacBook Pro running Mac OS Sierra (upgrade on the spot, not a clean install) of the retina 2012. In the time that I've been using the new OS, I was finding myself annoyed by the way in which files are displayed in the Finder. It seems that the new police (I don't remember what is happening a few weeks ago on El Capitan) have set with spacing of the numeric characters, which causes the file list display the contents of the directory in a wavelike pattern which gives it a rather ugly appearance and becomes annoying when you try to scan through the list of files.

I've read mention a lot about a new San Francisco monospaced font that I think made his debut this year, but why it is not implemented as a system font is disconcerting. Is it the way it is supposed to be, or something not properly get upgraded during the update process? If there is some sort of command terminal or utility for Finder using a correct fixed-width font, I'd like to hear it!

FWIW, I do not believe any version of Mac OS x uses a fixed-width/spacing font in the Finder. Even if the numeric characters are spacing you would have the same problem with alphabetic characters mixed. And even if everything was at constant spacing there would be a ripple on the right because of the names of files of different length.
