It doesn't use the memory under the kernal at all (at least in the default
configuration).

It may be used, but not for "normal" memory, because the C64 runtime uses the
kernal. It would be possible to write a library that makes use of the memory
under the kernal as "extended memory" or something like this, but since this
will be a library, anyone is free not to use it.
