You are off by 1. start and end are inclusive so the size of sda4 is:
1 + (7814037134 - 102764544) = 7711272591
Closing for this reason.
BTW, "start and end are inclusive" - IMHO is very bad decision,
because now it is not possible to partition disk using MiB units
and always need use sectors and make all calculations manually.
No.. MiB units work just fine.
for example, parted -s /dev/sda mkpart primary 34s 1MiB
now use one sector from second MiB and next partition
will be created as unaligned.
No, it doesn't... the partition ends on sector 2047, so the next
partition can start on sector 2048.
